PAYROLL TAX PROBLEMS
Every business with employees is required to pay payroll taxes. These deposits are typically due within a few days after payroll checks are issued and if you fail to pay on time, the IRS will immediately impose interest and penalties. Most businesses make submitting these tax deposits a part of their regular routine, but business owners who are not diligent about making these payments accurately and on time can run into major payroll tax problems.
How Payroll Problems Start
When cash flow gets tight, some business owners dip into the withholdings from payroll to pay monthly expenses like rent or utility bills. They may reason that they’ll catch up on their payroll taxes as soon more money comes in and will avoid any serious problems but instead the debt compounds week after week.
Another reason businesses experience payroll tax problems is because these funds are mismanaged by a dishonest or unqualified employee. An employee may hide the fact that they’ve failed to submit employment taxes for a long time before the IRS comes knocking with a large tax bill including harsh penalties.
