Form 941: Step-by-Step Guide for the 2025 Tax Year

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is Form 941 used for?

Form 941, the Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return, is used to report income taxes, Social Security tax, and Medicare tax withheld from employee paychecks. Employers must also report their share of Social Security and Medicare taxes, along with wages, tips, and other compensation paid to employees.

Have fewer employees? You may be eligible to file Form 944 annually instead.

2. When are Form 941 due?

Form 941 must be filed quarterly. The due dates are as follows:
  • 1st Quarter (Jan-Mar) Due by April 30
  • 2nd Quarter (Apr-Jun): Due by July 31
  • 3rd Quarter (Jul-Sep): Due by October 31
  • 4th Quarter (Oct-Dec): Due by January 31 of the following year

3. Who files Form 941?

Most employers who pay wages to employees are required to file Form 941. This includes businesses that:
  • Pay wages subject to federal income tax withholding.
  • Withhold Social Security and Medicare taxes from employee paychecks.
  • Pay the employer's portion of Social Security and Medicare taxes.

Exceptions:

  • Household employers usually report taxes on Schedule H (Form 1040), not Form 941.
  • Agricultural employers typically file Form 943, not Form 941.
  • Some small employers may be instructed by the IRS to file Form 944 annually instead of Form 941 quarterly.

4. What are the penalties for not filing Form 941 on time?

The penalties don't stack up. The IRS doesn't apply a 10% penalty to the 2% and 5% late penalties if your deposit is more than 15 calendar days late. Your overall penalty would be 10% instead.
No. of days your deposit is lateAmount of the penalty

  • Reported more than $50,000 in employment taxes in the lookback period.
  • Accumulated $100,000 or more in tax liability on any given day in the current or prior calendar year.

6. How can I correct mistakes on a previously filed Form 941?

To correct mistakes on a previously filed Form 941, you need to file Form 941-X, which is the Adjusted Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return or Claim for Refund. This form allows you to fix errors like incorrect wages, tax amounts, or deposit mistakes.
