Enter the worker's social security number.
Enter the worker's first initial and last name.
Enter in columns a, b, c and d the wages paid in each quarter of the year. Round wages to the nearest whole dollar amount.
This line will automatically update the total amount of wages paid for the year.

10.
Enter as taxable wages the sum of excess wages on line 9 minus the total wages reported on line 8. Round wages to the nearest whole dollar amount.
11.
This line will automatically calculate by multiplying the taxable wages reported on line 10 times the rate entered in line 6.
12.
Enter the amount of your tax overpayment from previous quarters (if any). You must attach the tax overpayment notice issued to this form.
13.
Enter the amount of underpayment from previous quarters. (This is an optional field.)
14.
Enter the amount of remittance. If payment is made after the due date, use the following example as a guide for computing the interest and penalty due:
Assume the report is 15 days past the due date for the 4th quarter of 2001 (due 01/31/2002). The contributions due = $100.25. Interest is calculated at 1% per month or portion thereof. In this case, interest equals $0.49. Penalty accrues at 5% per month not to exceed 25% on the first day. The penalty calculation is 5% of the contributions due plus interest due. In this case, penalty equals $5.04.
The total remittance for line 14 will equal $105.78.

REMINDER: Signature is required on both portions of this form.
