Changes to Form 941 for Q3 & Q4 of 2020

For the third and fourth quarters of 2020, there were changes to 4 lines. This was because the IRS allowed employers to defer the employee share of Social Security tax on the qualified wages paid between September 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020.

From the first quarter of 2021, employers are no longer allowed to defer the employee and employer share of Social Security taxes. To accommodate this, the IRS has revised Form 941 and changes can be seen in Line 13b, Line 13e, Line 13g, and Line 24.
