How To Apply an Unemployment Tax Credit

[ReginaClose]

I received a 4th Q reporting form stating I have a credit to apply toward my 4th quarter payment. My payments have been automatically paid through payroll all year. Where or how do I put this credit in before the payment is made? I've tried to contact square payroll 2 times with no response. Any help would be great!

Hey @ReginaClose! In order to reconcile any over payments due to an incorrect UI rate in previously filed quarters, you'll want to contact your state tax agency or follow the instructions on the notice. Our Square Payroll team doesn't have the ability to apply that credit to future filings/payments.

If it's from the IRS, you can reach out to them directly:

• Call the IRS: The IRS can be reached at 800-829-0115. Please make sure you have your EIN and tax credit letter handy to reference the period of the credit.
• Write the IRS: You can send a letter the IRS referencing the tax form (ie Form 941) and tax period (ie Q4 2017). Reference which office to mail these to with this mailing list: www.irs.gov/filing/where-to-file-your-taxes-for-form-941
