“I got a Notice to Submit Return for a withholding account I forgot to close, do I still have to file a formal return showing zero employees for those missing periods?”
A Notice to Submit Return for an open withholding account often points to a filing issue rather than a payroll activity issue, and the answer can depend on whether the account was actually inactive, whether the closure was processed by the state, and what periods the notice covers. In many cases, the state may still expect formal zero returns for missing periods until the account is closed on its records. The wording of the notice, any prior closure request, and the state’s withholding registration history usually shape how the missing filings are handled. A short conversation with a CPA can sort out what applies to your specific numbers.
