State Taxes
Small businesses owners are dependent upon each state for their
liability when it comes to payroll taxes for their state of
operation. Each state varies, and there are even some states
that do not withhold state tax and require no state income tax
filing. Each state requires that an employer deduct and withhold
unemployment tax, just the same as at the federal level.
Generally, however tax rates for the state level on unemployment
tax will vary depending upon the employment history of the
business. Once in business long enough, a tax rate can be
established based upon the employer's experience with benefit
charges and taxable payroll. Taxes are deducted in the same
manner as federal taxes, each pay period and filed with the
applicable state on a monthly basis. Most states will also
require a quarterly information report comparable to the 941
federal forms. Withholding rates on the state level are much
lower than the federal rates. Also, there are limits of
liability. Once a particular level is reached in income, the tax
rate may be reduced, or sometimes eliminated. Small businesses
operating in one more than one state may find themselves liable
for payroll tax in each state. If you
operate in multiple
states, you should contact each state of operation to determine
your liability and setup the necessary accounts for deductions.
Quite often accountants that handle state taxes in your area
will be aware of each state's filing requirements and be able to
assist you. The greatest concern as a small business that you
will have on the state level will be the unemployment tax that
you are assessed. Unemployment compensation is administered on
the state level, and can therefore greatly affect your tax
liability. Your tax rating determines your tax liability, and
new businesses are given a standard rating until enough time has
passed with operations to assess an individual rating based on
employee benefit charges and gross taxable payroll.
