Key Dates to Remember for Year-End Payroll

December 7, 2022
in HR


For HR and payroll professionals, the holiday season means a whole lot more than gingerbread and mistletoe. The transition between years brings tax deadlines, ACA reporting requirements, bank holidays, and more.

This year, ring in 2023 with confidence by keeping the below dates in mind. While these dates pertain to most employers, note that some businesses may have their own industry-specific compliance deadlines as well.



December (All Month)

If you haven’t already, confirm your state and city’s minimum wage for 2023. A full listing of this year’s batch can be found here.
  

December 26th – Bank Holiday

Since Christmas falls on a Sunday this year, December 26th is a bank holiday. If your payday falls on this date, you’ll need to work with your vendor to find another time and confirm whether your processing deadline has changed.
 

January 2nd – Bank Holiday

Happy 2023! Since New Year’s Day is on a Sunday, banks will be closed on January 2nd. Make sure your first payroll of the year isn’t scheduled on a bank holiday.


January 16th – Bank Holiday

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a bank holiday, so work with your payroll vendor to ensure that it doesn’t conflict with a processing deadline or employee paydays.

 
January 31st – Forms W-2 and 1099-MISC Due

Out of all the dates listed above, this might be the most critical to remember. The W-2 Wage and Tax Statement and 1099-MISC Miscellaneous Income Form must be provided to employees and filed with the IRS by this date. Help employees get a head start on their tax returns by providing this sooner rather than later.

January 31st – Forms 940 and 941 Due

You’ll need to worry about more than just employee W-2s in late January. Make sure your Form 940 (Annual FUTA Tax Return) and Form 941 (Quarterly Federal Tax Return) are squared away and filed with the IRS. If you work with a payroll provider, they should be handling most of the heavy lifting here.

February 15th – Confirm W-4 Information for Exempt Employees

Employees wishing to claim exempt status for federal tax withholding in 2023 must file a new Form W-4 by this date.
 

February 20th – Bank Holiday

Happy Birthday, George Washington! Direct deposits and other payments cannot not be processed on President’s Day.

 
March 2nd – Form 1095-C Due to Employees

To comply with the Affordable Care Act, employers are required to furnish workers with the Form 1095-C by this date. The form summarizes what health coverage the company offered in the last year.

March 31st – Forms 1095-C and 1094-C Due to IRS

Employers subject to the Affordable Care Act must file these coverage-related forms to the IRS by this date. Work closely with your broker to confirm you’ll make the deadline.


If you use a third-party vendor to run payroll, note that they may have their own internal deadlines as well. While it sounds simple, keeping a list (and checking it twice) can help set you up for success this holiday season.

Once the dust settles on the year-end, year-start period, there are a number of easy to-dos that you can tackle in Q2 to make payroll go even smoother next year. Subscribe to our newsletter to catch other helpful compliance and HR best practice tips year round.
