IRS: Jan. 31 filing deadline for employers, other businesses to file wage statements, independent contractor forms

WASHINGTON — With just a few days remaining until the deadline, the Internal Revenue Service reminds employers and other businesses that Jan. 31 is the filing deadline for submitting wage statements and forms for independent contractors with the government.

Employers must file their copies of Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, and Form W-3, Transmittal of Wage and Tax Statements, with the Social Security Administration by Jan. 31. The Jan. 31 deadline also applies to certain Forms 1099-MISC, Miscellaneous Income, filed with the IRS to report non-employee compensation to independent contractors.

This deadline helps the IRS fight tax fraud by making it easier to verify income reported on individual tax returns. The IRS no longer grants an automatic extension of time to file Form W-2. Requests for more time to file must be submitted before the due date. Only certain reasons, such as a death or natural disaster are allowed. Details can be found on the instructions for Form 8809, Application for Extension of Time To File Information Returns.

Failure to file these forms correctly and timely may result in penalties. The IRS recommends employers and other businesses to e-file as the quickest, most accurate and convenient way to file these forms.

Taxpayers: Steps to take if no W-2

Most taxpayers get their Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, by the end of January. Taxpayers need their W-2s to file accurate tax returns, as the form shows an employee’s income and taxes withheld for the year.

Taxpayers who haven’t received their W-2 by the end of February should, as a first step, contact their employer. Taxpayers should ask their current or former employer for a copy of their W-2. Be sure the employer has the correct address. Additional information for taxpayers is available at IRS.gov.

Town Center North Overlay Public Engagement Project Re-envisioning Town Center North Overlay We want to hear how you, our residents, envision the future of the Town Center North Overlay. The Town Center North re-envisioning process is currently underway!  Throughout the last year, the City of Sunny Isles Beach has been working to solve a discrepancy in the Town Center District. You can read the complete history of the Town Center District discrepancy and the steps we have been taking to remedy the issue via the below link. Town Center District History Town Center North Overlay Scope In December 2019, the City Commission created the Town Center North Overlay through a Comprehensive Plan amendment. The Town Center North Overlay boundary consists of the westbound lanes of Sunny Isles Boulevard north to 172 Street, spanning east to Collins Avenue and west to the Intracoastal Waterway. We are now creating development guidelines for this newly formed area and this is your opportunity to share your input. Timeline The Town Center North re-envisioning process is currently underway. The first part of the process is key stakeholder interviews with elected officials, residents, property owners, and business owners. These will be conducted during January and February 2020. The next step is an Interactive Listening Session on March 10, where residents will be able to share input on what their vision is for the Town Center North Overlay. Upon completion, presentations will be available on our webpage at sibfl.net/towncenternorth and you will have the ability to submit additional comments or suggestions. Once all public engagement data has been collected, Calvin, Giordano & Associates will present their findings and recommendations for future development guidelines in the Town Center North Overlay to the City Commission during a public meeting.
