Essential rules of record retention after your office liquidation

After business check, rules of record retention come into force. Liquidated services have a legal duty to retain records under civil, state, and original laws, for multiple purposes, including checkups, duty returns, and any claims made against the company.

According to the IRS, how long you must keep your business records after office liquidation depends on what’s recorded in each document.

Employment tax records

Following office decommissioning, you must keep all employment tax records at least four times. The IRS saysthat records should include:

  1. Payment and wage amounts
  2. Pension payments and annuities
  3. The fair market value of in-kind payments
  4. The value of any tips
  5. Employee occupations
  6. Dates during which you employed them
  7. Copies of various income tax withholding forms (W-4, W-4P, W-4S, and W-4V)
  8. Fringe benefits records
  9. Copies of filed returns
  10. Records of allocated tips
  11. Name, address, and social security number of employees
  12. Sickness and absence payment records

Please note that pending claims, including open action and workers’ compensation, need you to hold onto records until the case closes.
