Form 941 is a quarterly payroll report filed by employers indicating employees’ wages, tips, withheld tax, medical, taxes, and social security taxes. It is a form of trust fund because the employer is in a fiduciary position to hold fund on employee’s behalf before the government receives it. If an employer fails to do so, it may result to tax liability and accumulation of employment tax debts under form 941 and 940. Consequently, the IRS may decide to get the debt through levies, liens, the sale of assets or getting the business’ trust fund from officers. A person may also end up bearing personal, civil and criminal liability.
