If you are required to file a federal income tax return (Form 1040 or 1040-SR), file Schedule H with the return and report any household employment taxes. Report any federal unemployment (FUTA) tax on Schedule H if you paid total cash wages of $1,000 or more in any calendar quarter of 2021 or 2022 to household employees. Also, report any income tax that was withheld for your household employees. For more information, please call this office.

April 18 - C-Corporations
File a 2022 calendar year income tax return (Form 1120) and pay any tax due.
