Colorado tax agencies

When beginning a new business in Colorado, you need to follow specific registration steps with different state agencies.

Here are the key registration steps for your new business in Colorado:

1. Register with the Colorado Department of Revenue for income tax withholding to handle state income taxes for your employees.

2. Register with the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment to meet your obligations regarding unemployment tax, which includes contributing to the state's unemployment insurance program.

3. Beginning in 2024, consider registering for the Family and Medical Leave program based on your business's size and other factors.

4. Depending on your business's location in Colorado, you may need to register with local tax agencies to comply with any additional tax requirements.

Before you start registering with these agencies, make sure you have the following:

1. Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN): You should already have an FEIN from the IRS. This number is crucial for reporting taxes at the federal and state levels.

2. Designated Registered Agent: You must appoint a registered agent in Colorado who can receive legal papers and official communications for your business. This agent must have a physical address within the state.

3. If your business is based outside of Colorado, check whether you need to register with the Colorado Secretary of State or provide certain documents. Some out-of-state businesses might have specific registration requirements or exemptions.

 

Registering for Income and Unemployment Accounts

To properly set up your new business in Colorado, 

1. Start by registering your business with the Colorado Secretary of State. This is a fundamental requirement to establish your business entity within the state.

2. Make sure you have a Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) from the IRS, which is essential for tax reporting purposes.

3. Appoint a registered agent with a physical address in Colorado. This person will receive legal documents and official communications on behalf of your business.

4. If your business is based outside of Colorado, determine whether you need to register with the Colorado Secretary of State or provide specific documentation. The requirements for foreign business entities may vary.

Income tax and unemployment tax registration

To apply for both tax types online, you can use MyBizColorado. Here are the steps:

1. Begin by reviewing the registration process overview provided by the agency.

2. Once you're ready, click on the "Start" button to initiate the registration process. This will include registering with the Department of Revenue (DOR) and the Department of Labor and Employment (CDLE).

3. If your company doesn't currently have an obligation for unemployment tax, your CDLE account won't be activated right away. You can find more information about the activation requirements.

4. After completing the online registration, you will receive immediate confirmation on MyBizColorado. Additionally, a confirmation letter will be sent to you via mail.

 

Entering the tax account information in Niural

Once you've successfully added a valid Colorado work address for one or more employees in Niural, you can proceed to input your tax account information using the following steps:

1. Navigate to Company tab and click on Company Details 

2. Scroll down to the Colorado Tax Setup section and click on Edit.

3. Input your Colorado Department of Revenue (CO DOR) withholding account number, typically consisting of eight digits.

 Niural uses this account number to obtain your Withholding Credit ID from the agency, which is essential for making electronic payments on your behalf.

If, for any reason, Niural is unable to obtain the Withholding Credit ID, please contact the agency at (303) 238-7378 for troubleshooting. Common issues that may arise include:

• Incorrect entry of the withholding account number in Niural.
• No withholding account associated with the provided number.
• Mismatch between the legal name you provided and the state's registration records.

If you need to update your account number, please reach out to us at support@niural.com. Be aware that there could be tax consequences if taxes have already been paid or filed using an incorrect account number.

Next, enter your Colorado Department of Labor and Employment (CO DLE) unemployment account number, which typically follows a 9-digit format like "654321.00-9."

Note: The 7th and 8th digits often both are zeros.

If your company is currently not responsible for unemployment tax, please refer to the guidance below for instructions on what to do in the interim and when you become liable for such taxes.

 

Running payroll in Niural before you're liable for SUI

Your company becomes liable for State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) tax in Colorado under the following conditions:

1. When you've paid $1,500 in wages during a calendar quarter.

   OR

2. When you've had at least one Colorado employee working for any part of the week for 20 or more different weeks during a calendar year.

If you need to run payroll but haven't met these requirements yet, Niural allows you to do so. We recommend adding the "New employer SUI tax rate" specific to Colorado in the meantime. You can find the new employer rates for each state in this article, along with instructions on how to update the rate once you become liable and receive your company-specific agency-assigned rate.

Once your company becomes liable for SUI tax, you'll need to take the following actions:

1. Email employer.services@state.co.us with the following information:

• Account number
• Business name
• Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN)
• The first check date of Colorado payroll
• The actual date when the $1,500 gross wage threshold was met or exceeded

2. Once the agency has assigned a company-specific unemployment rate, they will send you a Notice of Employer's Tax Rate (Form UITR-7) by mail. Enter this rate in Niural from the Taxes & compliance section of an admin account.

Regarding local tax registration, specifically Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT), if you have employees working in certain Colorado locations such as Aurora, Denver, Glendale, Greenwood Village, or Sheridan, you or your employees may be liable for this tax.

The OPT includes both an employee and employer tax. Employees making over a certain threshold amount per month are taxed monthly (wage thresholds vary by agency), and employers are taxed a flat amount per month for each employee, even if you do not run payroll. Some Colorado cities also require employers to pay OPT for business owners and officers who are not included on payroll. In your Niural account, you'll be asked to include how many business owners/officers are subject to OPT taxes, but do not include owners or officers that you are paying taxable wages.

 

The Denver Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT)

The Denver Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT) applies to the following individuals:

1. Employees who earn equal to or greater than $500 per month.

2. Owners and officers, even if they are not on the payroll.

To comply with this tax, you'll need to inform Niural about your owners and officers, and you can find specific instructions on how to do so below:

Additionally, partners or managers of businesses who engage in business activities within Denver are also subject to the Denver OPT.

Certain employers, such as governmental or charitable entities, may qualify for an exemption from the employer portion of the tax if their employees are engaged in duties that align with the organization's exempt status. It's important to note that employees themselves are never exempt from this tax.

To inform Niural about the number of business owners who are not considered employees but are responsible for paying the Denver Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT), follow these steps:

1. Go to the Company details section in your Niural account.

2. Click on Jobs and Pay.

3. Select Edit on Colorado Tax Setup.

4. Modify the relevant field to specify how many owners are subject to the tax.

 

How is the tax calculated, and when does it get withheld?

Typically, we will deduct the tax on the first payroll of each month. Although we calculate and withhold the tax monthly, the actual deposit to the agency will align with your company's agency-assigned deposit schedule.

Here's a breakdown of the Denver Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT):

• The employee portion of the tax is $5.75.
• The employer portion of the tax is $4.00, also known as the "business operations" portion.
• The total monthly assessment is $9.75 per employee or owner/partner.

Even in months when there are no subject employees, employers are still required to pay a minimum of $4 for the "business operations" portion of the tax.

It's important to note that the tax liability is processed in arrears because it's based on employees' earned income. 

For example, if you start using Niural in January, the Denver OPT liability for the month of January will be withheld at the beginning of February, once all January wages have been processed.

 

How do I register for the Denver OPT?

To register for the Denver Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT), please follow these steps:

• Begin by registering your new business at the following link.
• In the "Access & Registration" section, click on "Register a New Business."
• If the agency initially required your company to file quarterly or annually, and you prefer to file monthly, contact them at excisetax.research@denvergov.org. Request a change in your filing frequency to monthly.

Please note that Niural defaults to the monthly deposit schedule, which is recommended to avoid late payments and filings. Niural will attempt to file monthly, and if the filing fails, the schedule will be updated to the one assigned by the agency.

For more detailed information on how Denver OPT taxation works, you can refer to this resource: [Learn more about Denver OPT taxation].

 

Aurora OPT registration and tax info

The city of Aurora enforces an Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT) on individuals who work within its city limits. Both employees and employers are subject to the Aurora OPT, which amounts to $2 per month if the following conditions are met:

1. Gross earnings are $250 or more per calendar month.

2. The employee works within the city of Aurora for any duration during that month.

An "employee" in this context refers to any person who is subject to federal income tax.

Religious or charitable organizations may be eligible for an exemption from paying the employer portion of the tax. 

However, the employer is still responsible for withholding and remitting the employee portion of the tax for employees of such organizations. If you have confirmed that your organization qualifies for an employer exemption, please inform us by contacting us at support@niural.com.

 

How do I register for the Aurora OPT?

To register for the Aurora Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT), follow these steps:

1. Register online by visiting this link. Please note that the registration process may take 10-14 days to complete.

3. Monthly Payment: Niural pays Sheridan OPT taxes monthly to help you stay compliant and avoid any penalties or interest.

The Sheridan OPT is withheld from payroll each month and consists of both an employee portion and an employer match, both totaling $3. Employers within the city must pay this tax for each employee who works within the city for any period during a calendar month and receives gross compensation of at least $500 for that month.

By following these steps and arranging for monthly payments, you can ensure compliance with the Sheridan OPT requirements for your business.

Registering for CO Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) on your own

The Colorado Department of Unemployment has introduced a new Paid Family & Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program that impacts your company's payroll starting from January 1, 2024. As your payroll provider, Niural will handle the withholding and remittance of employee contributions. If you're required to pay the employer portion of this tax, Niural will also manage that.

Here's what you need to know about registering for the FAMLI program and whether any employers are exempt:

Registration Requirement: All Colorado employers with one or more qualifying employees must register for a FAMLI account. This applies regardless of whether they are required to pay the employer portion of this tax. All Colorado employers must remit payments on behalf of their employees.

Equivalent Private Plan: If you offer your employees an equivalent private plan, you must apply for private plan approval with the FAMLI Division. If your plan is approved, contact Niural to inform us that you've received approval from FAMLI to use your equivalent plan. It's important to note that Colorado is not expected to approve exemptions until Q3 2024. Niural will continue withholding until these exemptions can be implemented.

Here's how to register and obtain a FAMLI account ID:

1. Watch Overview: Begin by watching a step-by-step video that provides an overview of the registration process.
2. Register for a FAMLI Account: Visit the My FAMLI+ Employer website to register for a FAMLI account.
3. Create an Account: Click "Log into My FAMLI+ Employer" and then select "Create account" if you're a new user.
4. Provide Details: Fill in your details and consider opting in for 2-factor authentication.
5. My+ FAMLI Page: After creating your account, you'll be directed to the CO My+ FAMLI page.
6. Add or Link an Organization: Click "Add or link an organization." When asked if you're a third-party administrator registering on behalf of the organization, answer "No."
7. Select Organization Type: Choose the organization type that best describes your business. Do not select "Third-Party Administer" or "Transmitter."
8. FEIN Search: Search for your company's Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN). If you aren't already registered, proceed to the next step.
9. Complete Company Details: Provide your company details to create a My FAMLI+ account, using your company's FEIN to register the business and link the two accounts.
10. Authorize Niural: After registering both accounts, you'll need to authorize Niural as your third-party agent for CO FAMLI to enable us to file and pay this tax.

When you register, you will receive your new 10-digit FAMLI account ID number directly in the MyFAMLI+ portal.

 

How to determine which parts of the tax obligations you need to cover (employer, employee, or both)

In Colorado, employers are mandated to pay the employer portion of FAMLI if they had 10 or more employees nationwide in the previous calendar year. This employee headcount determination is made by examining the number of employees in the previous calendar year.

Here's a summary of the requirements for different categories of businesses under the Colorado Paid Family & Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program:

Self-Employed Individuals or Owner-Only Companies with No Employees:

You are not required to participate in FAMLI, but you can choose to do so in the future.

The agency will not accept payments for this subset of companies in 2024. Please inform us if you fall into this group so we can mark you as exempt. 

Businesses with 2-9 Employees Nationwide:

You are not obligated to pay the employer portion of the FAMLI tax.

However, you must still register with FAMLI to remit employee contributions.

Your Colorado-based employees must pay the employee portion, which is 0.45% of their wages, until they reach the Social Security wage base amount.

Businesses with 10 or More Employees Nationwide:

You are required to pay the employer portion, which is 0.45% of each Colorado employee's wages.

Colorado employees must also pay the employee portion, which is 0.45% of their wages, until they reach the Social Security wage base amount.

For instance, if you have 150 employees across the country, and 12 of them are exclusively working in Colorado, you are responsible for the 0.45% employer's share and must also withhold and remit the 0.45% employee's share for each of those 12 Colorado-based employees.

Employers are only required to pay premiums for employees who are based in Colorado. A Colorado employee is defined as an individual who conducts all of their work within Colorado and whose work is subject to Colorado State Unemployment tax. For further details on the criteria for localization, you can refer to the FAMLI Division's Premium Rules in 7 CCR 1107-1, Section 1.5.6.C.

For more questions, contact the agency by email at CDLE_FAMLI_info@state.co.us.

 

How is the tax calculated?

The tax is determined based on a percentage of wages for both employers and employees. Here's how it works:

• Employers contribute 0.45% of their employees' wages. Please refer to the participation requirements mentioned earlier to check if you're obligated to pay the employer portion.
• Employees also contribute 0.45% of their wages until they earn more than the social security wage base amount.

For instance, if an employee earns $1,000 in wages, the employee pays $4.50, and the employer also pays $4.50.

 

Entering your CO FAMLI liability and account number in Niural

If you have determined that you are liable for the employer portion of CO FAMLI, please follow these steps to inform us so we can accurately pay and file your taxes:

1. Sign in to your Niural account.

2. Go to the Jobs and Pay section under Company Details.

 

3. Scroll to the Colorado Tax Setup section and click Edit.

4. Indicate whether you are "Required to pay the employer portion of FAMLI?"

5. Enter your 10-digit CO FAMLI account number

6. Click on Save

This ensures that Niural is informed of your FAMLI tax liability, allowing us to manage your tax payments and filings accurately.

 

Finding account numbers and rate info (for companies that are already registered)

If you have previously registered in the state, you will need to input your tax account information into Niural to facilitate employee payments. Niural can file and pay taxes on your behalf once you are registered with one or more of the following agencies:

1. Colorado Department of Revenue - for income tax withholding.

2. Colorado Department of Labor and Employment - for unemployment tax and Family and Medical Leave (FAMLI).

3. Local Colorado tax agencies - for various local taxes.

If you haven't completed your registration yet, you can find detailed information in the relevant sections of this article to guide you through the registration process. Additionally, ensure you have your withholding tax account number or withholding credit ID at hand to complete the setup.

 

Withholding tax account number

If you have run payroll in Colorado before and need to find your tax account information, here's how to do it:

Withholding Tax Account Number:

• You can locate your withholding tax account number in the following places:
  • Online agency portal.
  • Form DR 1094 (quarterly returns).
  • The number is typically an 8-digit number, and some documents may include trailing digits (e.g., 12345678-003-WTH). In Niural, enter only the first 8 digits (e.g., 12345678) and omit the trailing digits (e.g., 003-WTH).

If you are unsure of your account number, you can contact the Colorado Department of Revenue at (303) 238-7378.

Withholding Credit ID:

Niural uses the withholding account number entered to obtain the Withholding Credit ID directly from the agency.

• If Niural is unable to obtain the Withholding Credit ID for any reason, you'll need to contact the agency at (303) 238-7378 for troubleshooting. Common reasons include:
  • An incorrect withholding account number was entered in Niural.
  • No withholding account was opened under the provided number.
  • The legal name provided does not match the state's registration.

Unemployment Account Number and Rate:

• You can find your unemployment account number and current tax rate on the MyUI Employer website.
• Note that the tax rate on the agency website is displayed as a decimal, not as a percentage. When entering it in Niural, input it as a percentage.
• For example, if the agency website shows a rate of 0.0644, enter it as 6.44% in Niural.
•  If you are uncertain about your account number or rate, you can contact the agency at (800) 480-8299.

FAMLI Account ID:

• Once you've created a MyFAMLI+ account, you can find your FAMLI account ID in two ways:
  • Check your email for the confirmation email from the agency, which should include your account ID.
  • Sign into your MyFAMLI+ account and click on "Manage accounts." Your account ID will be listed under the “Account ID” column.

Local Tax Account Number(s):

If you have employees working in locations such as Aurora, Denver, Glendale, Greenwood Village, or Sheridan, you may be liable for an Occupational Privilege Tax (OPT).

You can find your existing OPT account number(s) and deposit schedule(s) on notices you've received from the local agencies. Alternatively, you can contact the agency directly using the following contact information:

•  Aurora: (303) 739-7000
• Denver: Excisetax.research@denvergov.org
• Glendale: (303) 759-1513
• Greenwood Village: (303) 486-8299
• Sheridan: (303) 762-2200

If you need to register for an OPT tax, please refer to the "Registering a company with state and local agencies" section in this article.

 

Troubleshooting local tax issues

One common issue often relates to the tax deposit schedule. Niural handles OPT tax payments on a monthly schedule to minimize the risk of penalties or interest. If you have been informed of a tax deposit schedule difference, it's essential to contact the relevant agency directly and request a change to a monthly deposit frequency.

Additionally, some Colorado cities may require employers to pay OPT for business owners and officers who are not on the payroll. In your Niural account, you will be asked to specify how many business owners/officers fall into this category and are subject to OPT taxes. Do not include owners or officers to whom you are paying wages.

To enter your tax account information in Niural:

1. Sign in to your Niural account.

2. Go to the Jobs and Pay section under Company Details.

3. Scroll to the Colorado Tax Setup section and click Edit.

4. Enter the relevant account number(s) and rate(s).

5. Click on Save
