Essential August 2025 Tax Deadlines for Businesses

As August 2025 approaches, it’s crucial for businesses to meet key IRS deadlines to ensure compliance and avoid penalties. This guide provides a concise overview of important dates and requirements, including deadlines for filing Form 941 and making payroll tax deposits.

August 11 - File Form 941 for Q2 2025

Ensure timely filing of Form 941 for the second quarter of 2025. This deadline applies only if you've fully and punctually remitted the taxes for the quarter.

August 15 - Payroll Tax Deposits

Employers subject to monthly deposit rules must deposit Social Security, Medicare, and withheld income taxes for July 2025 by this date. Additionally, this is the deadline for depositing nonpayroll withholdings for July if the monthly rule applies.

Considerations for Weekends & Holidays:

If any deadline falls on a weekend or legal holiday, it automatically extends to the next business day that is not a legal holiday. Stay informed of these adjustments to ensure compliance.
