Will you have employees?
  • Yes
  • No
  • I am not sure

If you plan to hire employees, you will need to obtain the necessary state withholding tax accounts, including PA State withholding, unemployment compensation, and workers' compensation. Additionally, you will have to withhold the necessary federal and local taxes.

If you're not sure whether a person you are hiring is an employee or an independent contractor, review the IRS guidance provided on their website.
