Additional Relief with Respect to Employment Tax Deadlines Applicable to Employers Affected by the Ongoing Coronavirus (COVID-19) Disease 2019 Pandemic

19 Jan 2021 3:13 PM | Anonymous

Notice 2021-11 provides that the end date of the period during which employers must withhold and pay the deferred taxes is postponed from April 30, 2021, to December 31, 2021, and associated interest, penalties, and additions to tax for late payment with respect to any unpaid deferred taxes will begin to accrue on January 1, 2022, rather than on May 1, 2021. As required by section 274 of the COVID-related Tax Relief Act of 2020, which was enacted as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, on December 27, 2020, this notice modifies Notice 2020 65 by extending the time period during which employers must withhold and pay certain taxes that were deferred under Notice 2020-65.  

Notice 2021-11 will be in IRB:  2021-6, dated February 8, 2021.
