How many years must an employer retain records of FUTA and other federal taxes?

2 years
4 years
6 years
10 years

The correct answer is: 4 years

The requirement to retain records related to the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) and other federal taxes is set at four years. This timeframe is determined by the IRS guidelines that mandate employers keep employment tax records for at least four years after the date the tax return is due or paid, whichever is later. This retention period ensures that records are available for review in the event of an audit or if questions arise regarding the accuracy of the reports submitted. Maintaining accurate records helps employers comply with federal regulations and provides essential information for any future inquiries about taxes paid or claims made. Understanding the implications of this retention period is crucial for ensuring compliance and avoiding potential penalties for lost or incomplete records.
