Answer 1

if anyone operate a business and have employee working with you must need to file IRS Form 941. the employer need to file this form in quarterly basis. As an employer, you are responsible for withholding federal income tax and other payroll taxes from each employee’s paycheck and remitting it to the IRS. Each Form 941 you file reports the total amount of tax you withheld during the quarter When you calculate the amount to send to the IRS, in addition to federal income tax, the payment must reflect 6.2 percent of each employee’s wages, up to $128,400 in 2018. in the given case gross wages of each employees are less than $128400 so paul have to pay zero amount for 1st quarter of 2017 however he have to submit the form 941.
