*Employers urged to electronically file payroll tax returns by Oct. 31*

WASHINGTON ? The Internal Revenue Service today reminded employers to file the next quarterly payroll tax return by the approaching Oct. 31, 2022, due [ [link removed] ] date, and urged them to do so electronically.

While paper filing is available, the IRS strongly encourages e-filing. E-filing is the most secure, accurate method to file returns and saves taxpayers? time.

E-filing is easy with auto-populating forms and schedules with a step-by-step process that performs calculations for the employer.

The IRS acknowledges receipt of e-filed returns within 24 hours, giving taxpayers reassurance that their return was not misplaced or lost in the mail. E-file users also receive missing information alerts.

*Two options to electronically file payroll tax returns*
Employers can choose to self-file by purchasing IRS-approved software [ [link removed] ] that meets their specific needs. There may be a fee to electronically file returns through the software, and the software will require a signature to e-file the returns.

Depending on the software they choose, taxpayers will have one or both of the following options:


* Apply for an online signature PIN [ [link removed] ]
* Scan and attach Form 8453-EMP, Employment Tax Declaration for an IRS e-file Return [ [link removed] ], for the required signature.

The second option for employers is to hire a tax professional to prepare and file their employment tax returns. Taxpayers can use the Authorized IRS e-file Provider Locator Service [ [link removed] ] to find a tax professional who can file on behalf of the business.

For more information on electronic filing of payroll tax returns, see the E-file Employment Tax Forms [ [link removed] ] page.

*Tax relief in disaster situations*
Employers can find information on the most recent tax relief provisions for taxpayers affected by disaster [ [link removed] ] situations on IRS.gov. See FAQs for Disaster Victims [ [link removed] ] for information about the definition of an affected taxpayer.

IRS News from Around the Nation [ [link removed] ] provides IRS news specific to local areas, primarily disaster relief or tax provisions that affect certain states.
