(a) Every employer or person required to deduct and withhold from an employee a tax under Section 986, 3260, or 13020, or who would have been required to deduct and withhold a tax under Section 13020 (determined without regard to Section 13025) if the employee had claimed no more than one withholding exemption, shall furnish to each employee in respect of the remuneration paid by the person to the employee during the calendar year, on or before January 31 of the succeeding year, or, if his or her employment is terminated before the close of the calendar year, on the day on which the last payment of remuneration is made, a written statement showing all of the following: (1) The name of the person. (2) The name of the employee, and his or her social security or identifying number if wages have been paid. (3) The total amount of wages subject to personal income tax, as defined by Section 13009.5. (4) The total amount deducted and withheld as tax under Section 13020. (5) The total amount of worker contributions paid by the employee pursuant to Section 986. (6) The total amount of worker contributions paid by the employee pursuant to Section 3260. (7) The total amount of elective deferrals (within the meaning of Section 402(g)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code) and compensation deferred pursuant to Section 457 of the Internal Revenue Code. (b) The statement required to be furnished pursuant to this section in respect of any remuneration shall be furnished at other times, shall contain other information, and shall be in a form, as the department may by authorized regulations prescribe. (c) If, during any calendar year, any person makes a payment of third-party sick pay to an employee, that person shall, on or before January 15 of the succeeding year, furnish a written statement to the employer in respect of whom the payment was made showing all of the following: (1) The name and, if there is withholding under this division, the social security number of that employee. (2) The total amount of the third-party sick pay paid to that employee during the calendar year. (3) The total amount, if any, deducted and withheld from that sick pay under this division. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term "third-party sick pay" means any sick pay, as defined in subdivision (b) of Section 13028.6, which does not constitute wages for purposes of this division, determined without regard to subdivision (a) of Section 13028.6. (A) For purposes of Chapter 10 (commencing with Section 2101) of Part 1 of Division 1, the statements required to be furnished by this subdivision shall be treated as statements required under this section to be furnished to employees. (B) Every employer who receives a statement under this subdivision with respect to sick pay paid to any employee during any calendar year shall, on or before January 31 of the succeeding year, furnish a written statement to that employee showing all of the information shown on the statement furnished under this subdivision. (d) The Franchise Tax Board shall be allowed access to the information filed with the department pursuant to this section. 13052. Any person or employer required under Section 13050 to furnish a statement to an employee who furnishes a false or fraudulent statement, or who fails to furnish a statement in the manner, at the time, and showing the information required under Section 13050, or regulations prescribed thereunder, shall for each such failure, unless due to reasonable cause, pay a penalty of fifty dollars ($50). The penalty shall be assessed and collected in the same manner as the tax. 13052.5. (a) In addition to the penalty imposed by Section 19183 of the Revenue and Taxation Code (relating to failure to file information returns), if any person, or entity fails to report amounts paid as remuneration for personal services as required under Section 13050 of this code or Section 6041A of the Internal Revenue Code on the date prescribed thereof (determined with regard to any extension of time for filing), that person or entity may be liable for a penalty determined under subdivision (b). (b) For purposes of subdivision (a), the amount determined under this subdivision is the maximum rate under Section 17041 of the Revenue and Taxation Code multiplied by the unreported amounts paid as remuneration for personal services. (c) The penalty imposed by subdivision (a) shall be assessed against that person or entity required to file a return under Section 13050 of this code or Section 6041A of the Internal Revenue Code. (d) Sections 1221 and 1222 of the Unemployment Insurance Code shall not apply to assessments imposed by this section. (e) The penalty imposed under this section shall be in lieu of the penalty imposed under Section 19175 of the Revenue and Taxation Code. In the event that a penalty is imposed under both this section and Section 19175 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, only the penalty imposed under this section shall apply. (f) The penalty imposed by this section may be assessed in lieu of, or in addition to, the penalty imposed by Section 13052 with respect to the failure to furnish a withholding statement to an employee. 13055. Every employee who, in the course of his or her employment by an employer, receives in any calendar month tips which are wages shall report all such tips in one or more written statements furnished to his or her employer on or before the 10th day following such month. Such statements shall be furnished by the employee under such authorized regulations, at such other times before such 10th day, and in such form and manner as may be prescribed by the department. 13056. (a) When required by authorized regulations prescribed by the department: (1) Any person or employer required under the authority of this division to make a return, report, statement, or other document shall include in the return, report, statement, or other document the identifying number as may be prescribed for securing proper identification of the person. (2) Any person with respect to whom a return, report, statement, or other document is required under the authority of this division to be made by another person shall furnish to the other person the identifying number as may be prescribed for securing his or her proper identification. (3) Any person or employer required under the authority of this division to make a return, report, statement, or other document with respect to another person shall request from the other person, and shall include in the return, report, statement, or other document, the identifying number as may be prescribed for securing proper identification of the other person. (b) (1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), a return or report of any person with respect to his or her liability for tax, or any statement or other document in support thereof, shall not be considered for purposes of paragraphs (2) and (3) of subdivision (a) as a return, report, statement, or other document with respect to another person. (2) For purposes of paragraphs (2) and (3) of subdivision (a), a return or report of an estate or trust with respect to its liability for tax, and any statement or other document in support thereof, shall be considered as a return, report, statement, or other document with respect to each beneficiary of the estate or trust. (c) For purposes of this section, the department is authorized to require the information that may be necessary to assign an identifying number to any person. 13057. (a) If any person who is required by regulations prescribed under Section 13056 to provide a required identifying number fails without good cause to comply with that requirement at the time prescribed by the regulations, the person shall pay a penalty of five dollars ($5) for each failure: (1) To include his or her identifying number in any return, report, statement, or other document. (2) To furnish his or her identifying number to another person. (3) To include in any return, report, statement, or other document made with respect to another person the identifying number of the other person. (4) To furnish any other agency's taxpayer identification number. (b) The penalty under this section shall be assessed and collected in the same manner as the tax. 13058. Except as otherwise provided by the department, any return, report, statement, or other document required to be made under any provision of this division or authorized regulations shall contain, or be verified by, a written declaration that it is made under the penalty of perjury. The returns, reports, and all other returns, reports, statements, or other documents or copies thereof required by this division, shall be in the form as the department may from time to time prescribe, and shall be filed with the department. The department shall prepare blank forms for the returns, reports, declarations, statements, or other documents and shall distribute them throughout the state and furnish them upon application. Failure to receive or secure the form does not relieve any employer or person from making any return, report, statement, or other document required. 13059. If the Governor declares a state of emergency, the director may extend the time requirements for filing returns, reports, and statements required by this chapter. The extension granted by the director pursuant to this section shall only apply to employers prevented by the conditions giving rise to the state of emergency from timely filing their returns, reports, and statements of wages or timely payment of the taxes due.
