It is therefore needless to say, that the organization must be aware of the prevailing tax structures and other related laws. In order to compute the tax, the organization will have to get the necessary forms filled up by the employees. The details of salary as declared in the form will have to be cross checked with the official records. After this, the organization will have to compute the tax payable by the employee. If there is any mistake in calculation, the employee may not get certain tax benefits and on the other hand, the organization may also be put to greater inconvenience. Remember, tax laws are very stringent and IRS may take strict action against the organization.
