California’s Employment Development Department (EDD) has announced available extensions for filing state payroll records and depositing state payroll taxes for counties affected by disasters. Following Gov. Newsom’s proclamation ending several states of emergency, the EDD has announced those in affected counties may request two-month extensions for filing and payment. The affected counties include Butte, Los Angeles, Del Norte and multiple northern counties where states of emergency were declared for various reasons.
The EDD’s “Emergency and Disaster Assistance for Employers” website offers specifics for each scenario. The website also provides direction, under “Requests for Extension to Report and Pay,” on how to apply for an extension.
