Program Scope and Objectives

  1. This IRM provides instructions for entering and verifying data from unemployment forms, schedules and block control forms using the Integrated Submission and Remittance Processing System (ISRP).

    1. This chapter also provides information for Quality Review in performing the review of information transcribed on ISRP.

    2. Use IRM 1.11.10, Internal Management Documents System, Interim Guidance Process, and elevate through the proper channels for operational situations, temporary procedures, pilot programs, or a change to current procedures.

  2. Purpose: The instructions in this IRM apply to the processing of paper filed Form 940, Employer's Annual Federal Unemployment (FUTA) Tax Return, Form 940 (PR), Planilla Para La Declaracion Federal Anual Del Patrono De La Contribucion Federal Para El Desempieo (FUTA) (Puerto Rico - Spanish version) and Form 940 (sp) , Declaracion del Impuesto Federal Anual del Empleador del Impuesto Federal para el Desempleo (FUTA) through ISRP.

  3. Audience: Submission Processing Data Conversion Operation personnel including general clerks, leads and supervisors. These instructions apply to all campuses.

  4. Policy Owner: The Director, Submission Processing, Taxpayer Services.

  5. Program Owner: Mail Management Data Conversion Section, Return Processing Branch (an Organization within Submission Processing).

  6. Primary Stakeholders: Those affected by these procedures or have input to the procedures including a change in workflow, additional duties, change in established time frames, and similar issues include:

ISRP is an application designed to capture, format, and forward information related to tax submissions and remittances in electronically readable formats to downstream IRS systems. Forward any remittances received with a tax document to the Remittance Processing function for processing and deposit.

3.24.154.1.1 (01-01-2022)

Background

  1. Filers send paper unemployment forms to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to fulfill their requirement to file an annual unemployment tax return and provide their taxpayer identification number (TIN). The IRS must convert the information present on the paper filings to an electronic data record. Employees input and validate the data present and the IRS systems for these records during conversion to electronic data records.

3.24.154.1.2 (01-01-2022)

Authority

  1. Authority for these procedures is in Title 26 of the United States Code (USC) or more commonly known as the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The IRC is amended by acts, public laws, treasury determinations, rules, and regulations such as the following:

    • American Taxpayer Relief Act (ATRA)

    • Consolidated Appropriations Act (Extenders)

    • Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act

    • Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment (HIRE) Act

    • The Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA)

    • The Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act

    Note:

    The above list may not be all inclusive of the various updates to the IRC.

  2. IRM 1.2.1.4, Servicewide Policies and Authorities, Policy Statements for Submission Processing Activities contains all policy statements for Submission Processing:

    • Code sections that provide the IRS with the authority to issue levies.

    • Congressional Acts that outline additional authorities and responsibilities like the Travel and Transportation Reform Act of 1998 or the Tax Act of 1986.

    • Policy Statements that provide authority for the work done.

3.24.154.1.4 (01-01-2022)

Program Management and Review

  1. Program Reports: The reports listed below show work schedules, receipts, production and inventory for conversion of paper returns to electronic data. Management uses these reports to monitor the daily and weekly status of the program through completion.

    • Form 940(cg), Employer's Annual Federal Unemployment Tax Return-Computer Generated

      Note:

      This return reports the same Federal Unemployment (FUTA) Tax as Form 940. The return is computer generated rather than hand-written or typed and is filed by Examination or Collection personnel based on secured taxpayer information (i.e., as a Secured return) rather than mailed by the taxpayer. Also, in Compliance, some revenue officers use Form 940(cg) returns under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 6020(b) and indicate IRC 6020(b) on the return. Submission Processing Clerks should process Form 940(cg) returns using the same applicable procedures for Form 940, Employer's Annual Federal Unemployment (FUTA) Tax Return series.
