Sage is monitoring the President’s Executive Order regarding deferring payroll tax obligations in light of COVID-19

The President recently signed an Executive Order related to COVID-19. The Executive Order directs the Treasury Department to defer the withholding, deposit, and payment of the tax imposed by 26 U.S.C. 3101(a), and much of the tax imposed by 26 U.S.C. 3201 as is attributable to the rate in effect under 26 U.S.C. 3101(a), on wages or compensation, as applicable, paid during the period of September 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020.

We are waiting for guidance and clarifications from the Treasury before determining our next steps.
