General Instructions

Purpose of Schedule R (Form 941)

Use Schedule R (Form 941) to allocate the aggregate information 

reported on Form 941 to each client. If you have more than 15 clients, 

complete as many Continuation Sheets for Schedule R (Form 941) as 

necessary. Attach Schedule R (Form 941), including any Continuation 

Sheets, to your aggregate Form 941 and file it with your return.

Who Must File?

You must complete Schedule R (Form 941) each time you file an 

aggregate Form 941, Employer’s QUARTERLY Federal Tax Return. 

Aggregate Forms 941 are filed by agents approved by the IRS under 

section 3504. To request approval to act as an agent for an employer, 

you must file Form 2678, Employer/Payer Appointment of Agent, with 

the IRS. On Schedule R (Form 941), we call those employers your 

clients.

When Must You File?

If you are an aggregate Form 941 filer, file Schedule R (Form 941) with 

your aggregate Form 941 every quarter when Form 941 is due.

Specific Instructions

match the EIN and name shown on the attached Form 941.

Calendar Year

Check the Box for the Quarter

reported on the aggregate Form 941. For each column total of Schedule 

R (Form 941), the relevant line from Form 941 is noted in the column
