Key Points for CA Employers After Southern California Wildfires

For employers directly affected by the Airport, Bridge or Land fires, you may be eligible for a two-month extension to complete state payroll reports and/or deposit payroll taxes without incurring penalties or interest, according to the Employment Development Department. Extensions are typically granted under section 1111.5 of the California Unemployment Insurance Code (CUIC) if the Governor declares a State of Emergency. As of September 7^th, and 11^th, 2024, Governor Newsom has proclaimed a state of emergency for Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. As wildfires persist throughout Southern California, we encourage you to stay alert to changes in tax deadlines and consult with your local tax attorney to learn more about how to be prepared should your business become affected.
