The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance (DTF) is reminding employers about new wage reporting requirements enacted last year that will be required on first quarter reports due April 30, 2019 [DTF, Press Release, 3-21-19]. Employers will report all employee wage and withholding information each quarter. Previously, this information was only reported annually on the fourth quarter return.
This applies to Form NYS-45, Quarterly Combined Withholding, Wage Reporting, and Unemployment Insurance Return, and Form NYS-45-ATT, Quarterly Combined Withholding, Wage Reporting, and Unemployment Insurance Return-Attachment, and means employers are required to complete all of Part C, employee wage and withholding information, including columns d and e, each calendar quarter for all employees.
