(Form 941)
(Rev. March 2024)
Allocation Schedule for Aggregate Form 941 Filers
Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code
unless otherwise noted.
7705(e)(2); (c) a client who enters into a service

organization (PEO); or (e) a third party paying qualified
sick leave wages as an agent for the employer under

clients, complete as many Continuation Sheets as
necessary. Attach Schedule R, including any Continuation
Sheets, to your aggregate Form 941.
Future Developments
For the latest information about developments related to
Schedule R and its instructions, such as legislation
enacted after they were published, go to IRS.gov/
What’s New
The format of the March 2024 revision of Schedule R has
reverted back to the format previously used on the March
2022 revision of Schedule R, in which columns m, s, t, and
v were "Reserved for future use." The calendar year field
on Schedule R is no longer prepopulated. In most cases,
the March 2024 revision of Schedule R should only be
used for quarters beginning after December 31, 2023.
However, in some rare instances (for example, you have a
client that is eligible to take the COBRA premium
assistance credit after the first quarter of 2022), you may
need to file the March 2024 revision of Schedule R with a
Form 941-X, Adjusted Employer's QUARTERLY Federal
Tax Return or Claim for Refund, for a quarter that began
before January 1, 2024.
Who Must File?
Agents approved by the IRS under section 3504 and
CPEOs must complete Schedule R each time they file an
aggregate Form 941. To request approval to act as an
agent for an employer under section 3504, the agent must
file Form 2678 with the IRS. Form 2678 must be previously
filed and approved by the IRS before filing Schedule R. To
become a CPEO, the organization must apply through the
IRS Online Registration System. Go to the IRS website at
IRS.gov/CPEO for more information. Other third-party
payers that file aggregate Forms 941, such as
non-certified PEOs, must complete and file Schedule R if
they have clients that are claiming the qualified small
business payroll tax credit for increasing research
activities. Third-party payers other than agents approved
by the IRS under section 3504 and CPEOs need to
include client-by-client amounts only for those clients
claiming the qualified small business payroll tax credit for
increasing research activities. Amounts for clients not
claiming the qualified small business payroll tax credit for
increasing research activities are included on Schedule R,
page 1, line 8. Schedule R must also be completed if any
clients are claiming credits on Form 941-X.
The March 2024 revision of Schedule R includes a new
checkbox to tell us if the Schedule R is attached to Form
941 or 941-X. Columns f, l, n, o, p, u, w, x, and y are now
used only when Schedule R is attached to Form 941-X.
At this time, the IRS expects the March 2024 revision of
Schedule R and these instructions to also be used for the
second, third, and fourth quarters of 2024, and possibly
longer. If changes in law require additional changes to
Schedule R, the form and/or these instructions may be
revised. You may need a prior revision of Schedule R
when filing a Form 941-X (for example, to claim or correct
the employee retention credit). Prior revisions of
link for "All Form 941 Revisions" under "Other Items You
May Find Useful"). Don't use an earlier revision of
Schedule R for any calendar quarter beginning after
December 31, 2023.
When Must You File?
If you’re an aggregate Form 941 filer, file Schedule R with
your aggregate Form 941 every quarter. Agents and
non-certified PEOs may file Form 941 and Schedule R
electronically or by paper submission. CPEOs must
generally file Form 941 and Schedule R electronically. For
more information about a CPEO's requirement to file
electronically, see Rev. Proc. 2023-18, 2023-13 I.R.B.
