Key Individual Tax Deadlines: August 2025

As we step into August 2025, it's crucial for taxpayers to stay abreast of important tax deadlines to ensure compliance and avoid unnecessary penalties. This month marks significant dates for reporting and responding to any disaster-related extensions that may impact your filing status. Let’s dive into these dates and the actions required.

August 11 - Report Tips to Your Employer

If you’re an employee who earned over $20 in tips during July, remember you need to report these to your employer by August 11 through IRS Form 4070. This is necessary for the withholding of FICA and income taxes from your wages. Should your wages be insufficient to cover these withholdings, your employer will note uncollected amounts in box 8 of your W-2. It will then be your responsibility to pay these amounts when filing your annual tax return.
