Wise, District Director of the Utah Internal Revenue Service announced today. An employer may owe taxes of more than $100 at the time his return is due as a result of accumulating small monthly amounts of under $100, which are not required to be deposited monthly. He could also have made monthly deposits for the first two months of the quarter and be liable for more than $100 in the final month of the quarter. Previously the undeposited taxes due at filing time were paid to Internal Revenue Service with the return. The new rule means that practically all payments of income and social security taxes withlield from employees wages will be made through the Federal Tax Deposit (FTD) System. Additional FTD forms used in making deposits are available from IRS Western Service Center, Ogden, Utah, if needed. Beginning wth the automatic mailout of FTD forms for the second quarter, extra forms have been supplied for making quarterly payments.
