I authorize the U.S. Treasury and its designated Financial Agent to initiate an electronic funds withdrawal (direct debit) entry
to the financial institution account indicated in the tax preparation software for payment of the federal taxes owed for the
return indicated on lines 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, or 5a, and the financial institution to debit the entry to this account. To revoke a
payment, I must contact the U.S. Treasury Financial Agent at 1-888-353-4537 no later than 2 business days prior to the
payment (settlement) date. I also authorize the financial institutions involved in the processing of the electronic payment of
taxes to receive confidential information necessary to answer inquiries and resolve issues related to the payment.
Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have an approved role (as identified in the instructions for the employment tax return) within the company listed above and the
information I've given the electronic return originator (ERO), transmitter, and/or intermediate service provider (ISP) and the amounts in Part I above agree with the amounts
on the corresponding return. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the return is true, correct, and complete. I consent to the ERO, transmitter, and/or ISP sending the

receipt of transmission and an indication of whether or not the return is accepted and, if rejected, the reason(s) for the rejection. If the processing of the return or refund is
delayed, I authorize the IRS to disclose to the ERO, transmitter, and/or ISP the reason(s) for the delay, or when the refund was sent.

General Instructions
Note: Instead of filing Form 8453-EMP, a taxpayer filing an
employment tax return through an electronic return originator (ERO)
can sign the return using a personal identification number (PIN).
For details, see Form 8879-EMP, IRS e-file Signature Authorization
for Forms 940, 940-PR, 941, 941-PR, 941-SS, 943, 943-PR, 944,
and 945.
Purpose of Form
Use Form 8453-EMP to:
• Authenticate an electronic Form 940, 940-PR, 941, 941-PR,
941-SS, 943, 943-PR, 944, or 945;
• Authorize the ERO, if any, to transmit via a third-party transmitter;
• Authorize the intermediate service provider (ISP) to transmit via a
third-party transmitter if you're filing online (not using an ERO); and
• Provide the taxpayer’s consent to authorize an electronic funds
withdrawal for payment of federal taxes owed.
Who Must File
If you're filing Form 940, 940-PR, 941, 941-PR, 941-SS, 943,
943-PR, 944, or 945 through an ISP and/or transmitter and you're
not using an ERO, you must file Form 8453-EMP with the
electronically filed return. An ERO can use either Form 8453-EMP or
Form 8879-EMP to obtain authorization to file Form 940, 940-PR,
941, 941-PR, 941-SS, 943, 943-PR, 944, or 945.
When and Where To File
File Form 8453-EMP with the taxpayer’s electronically filed return.
Use a scanner to create a Portable Document Format (PDF) file of
the completed form. Your tax preparation software will allow you to
transmit this PDF with the return.
Specific Instructions
Name. Print or type the taxpayer’s name as shown on Form 940,
940-PR, 941, 941-PR, 941-SS, 943, 943-PR, 944, or 945.
Employer identification number (EIN). Enter the EIN as shown on
Form 940, 940-PR, 941, 941-PR, 941-SS, 943, 943-PR, 944, or 945.
Part II. Declaration of Taxpayer
If the taxpayer has a balance due on line 1c, 2c, 3c, 4c, or 5c and
the taxpayer didn't check box 6b, the taxpayer must use the
Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) to pay the tax. For
more information on deposits, see the instructions for the tax form
the taxpayer is filing.
If the taxpayer checks box 6b, the taxpayer must ensure that the
following information relating to the financial institution account is
provided in the tax preparation software.
• Routing number and account number.
• Type of account (checking or savings).
• Debit amount.
• Debit date (date the taxpayer wants the debit to occur).
An electronically transmitted return won't be considered
complete, and therefore filed, unless either:
• Form 8453-EMP is signed by the taxpayer, scanned into a PDF
file, and transmitted with the return; or
• The return is filed through an ERO and Form 8879-EMP is used to
select a PIN that is used to electronically sign the return.
The taxpayer’s signature allows the IRS to disclose to the ERO,
transmitter, and/or ISP:
• An acknowledgement that the IRS has accepted the electronically
filed return, and
• The reason(s) for any delay in processing the return or refund.
Part III. Declaration of Electronic Return
Originator (ERO) and Paid Preparer
Note: If the return is filed online through an ISP and/or transmitter
(not using an ERO), don't complete Part III.
If the taxpayer’s return is filed through an ERO, the IRS requires
the ERO’s signature. A paid preparer, if any, must sign Form
8453-EMP in the space for Paid Preparer Use Only. But if the paid
preparer is also the ERO, don't complete the paid preparer section.
Instead, check the box labeled “Check if also paid preparer.”
Refunds. After the IRS has accepted the return, the refund should
be issued within 3 weeks. However, some refunds may be delayed
to ensure that returns are accurate.
Use of PTIN
Paid preparers. Anyone who is paid to prepare the taxpayer's
return must enter their preparer tax identification number (PTIN) in
Part III. The PTIN entered must have been issued after September
27, 2010. For information on applying for and receiving a PTIN, see
Form W-12 or visit www.irs.gov/ptin.
EROs who aren't paid preparers. Only EROs who aren't also the
paid preparer of the return have the option to enter their PTIN or
their social security number in the “ERO's Use Only” section of Part
III. If the PTIN is entered, it must have been issued after September
27, 2010. For information on applying for and receiving a PTIN, see
Form W-12 or visit www.irs.gov/ptin.
