In Part 3, tell us about your business, answer only those questions that
apply. If the questions don't apply, leave them blank and go to Part 4.
If you go out of business or stop paying wages, you must file a final return.
To tell the IRS that a Form 941’s your final return, check the box on Line 15
and enter the date you last paid wages in the space provided.
If you only hire employees seasonally, check the box on Line 16. A golf
course and ski resort are examples of businesses that may only hire
seasonal employees. Checking the box tells the IRS not to expect four
Forms 941 that year because you haven't paid wages regularly.
If you want to allow an employee, a paid tax preparer, or another person to
discuss your Form 941 with the IRS, check the yes box in Part 4, May We
Speak with Your Third-party Designee?
Enter the name, phone number, and the five-digit personal identification
number (PIN) of the designated person.
By checking yes, you authorize the IRS to talk to the person about any
questions we may have while processing your return. You also authorize
your designee to do all of the following:
• Provide any information missing from your return.
• Call us for information about processing your return.
• Respond to certain IRS notices you have shared with your designee
about math errors and return preparation.
The IRS won't send notices to your designee.
The authorization will automatically expire one year from the due date for
filing your Form 941.
You aren't authorizing your designee to bind you to anything (including
additional tax liability) or to otherwise represent you before the IRS. If you
want to expand your designee's authorization, see Pub. 947.
Your policies and procedures should declare who has the authority to sign
this form on behalf of the tribal entity.
