LESSON 13-4 - Paying Withholding and Payroll Taxes
The payment of payroll taxes to the government is referred to as a deposit.
How often the business has to make a deposit depends on how much taxes the business collected during the current deposit period and depends on the amount of payroll taxes owed during the prior 12-month period. The 12-month period that ends on June 30th of the prior year is called
the lookback period.
