If you run a small business in Washington, you likely need to complete Form 5208A—the WA Quarterly Tax Report. This form is necessary to assess the total tax amount paid to the state government. Employers will need to provide accurate data, including total gross wages, excess wages, taxable wages, quarterly UI tax, and necessary payment to the employment administration fund, a separate but similar unemployment insurance tax. This form, as indicated by the name is due quarterly, and all liable employers must submit Form 5208A each quarter, even if no employees were paid during those months.
For organized small businesses, Form 5208A is simple. The form requires very basic calculations, necessitating data input rather than complex math skills. However, many small businesses do not have the time or resources to carefully plan and manage their finances. Business owners understand what is necessary to keep a company profitable, but other financial responsibilities—duties such as payroll, taxes, and wage reporting—often fall by the wayside. If this describes your situation, you’re not alone. However, Form 5208A will be exceedingly frustrating.

Our products are designed to help small business owners who don’t have the time or resource to perform regular but essential payroll and tax calculations.
