Florida Payroll Tax FAQs
What is a RT account number?
Once CorpNet registers your business with the Florida Department of Revenue, you will be issued a Reemployment Tax (RT) account number to use on all your business compliance requirements.
What Payroll Taxes Does Florida Have?
- Income Tax: Florida has no income tax, so as an employer, you are not required to register for state payroll taxes. You are still required to withhold federal income taxes and federal payroll taxes such as Social Security and Medicare.
- New Employees: The state of Florida does require all employers to report all new or rehired employees to the Florida Department of Revenue within 20 days of the effective hire date. The hiring date is the first date any services are performed for which you will pay the employee wages or other compensation.
- Reemployment Tax: Florida employers are also required to register online for the reemployment tax with the Florida Department of Revenue. Registered businesses are issued a reemployment tax (RT) account number.
What is Reemployment Tax?
Like Unemployment Insurance required in other states, the reemployment tax provides temporary income to workers who lose their jobs through no fault of their own and who are able and available for work.
When a new employer pays reemployment tax, the initial rate is .0270 (2.7%) and continues at that rate for 10 quarters. The account will then be rated by dividing the total benefits charged to the account by the taxable payroll reported for the first seven of the last nine quarters immediately preceding the quarter for which the rate is effective.
Am I Required to Register for Employer Taxes in Florida?
If you have employees working in Florida, you must register them with the Florida Department of Revenue as new hires and register to pay reemployment taxes.
