organization (CPEO); (d) a client who enters into a service
agreement described under Regulations section

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

Who Must File?
What’s New
Agents approved by the IRS under section 3504 and
CPEOs must complete Schedule R each time they file an
aggregate Form 943. 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 943, such as
These instructions were updated for changes made to the
2023 revision of the Form 943. The lines related to the
COBRA premium assistance credit on Form 943 have
been “Reserved for future use” because the first quarter of
2022 was the last quarter in which most employers may
have been eligible to claim the COBRA premium
assistance credit. The Schedule R columns for reporting
amounts related to the COBRA premium assistance credit
from Form 943 have been repurposed. Columns l, r, t, and
x, which were “Reserved for future use” on the 2022
revision of Schedule R, have also been repurposed. Don't
file an earlier revision of Schedule R with Form 943 for any
year beginning after 2022.
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 or the credit for qualified sick and family leave
wages. 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 one
or more of these credits. Amounts for clients not claiming
any of these credits are included on Schedule R, page 1,
line 8.
Under some rare circumstances, it may be possible for a
premium payee to become entitled to the COBRA
premium assistance credit after the first quarter of 2022.
However, in those cases, the credit must be claimed on a
Form 943-X, Adjusted Employer's Annual Federal Tax
Return for Agricultural Employees or Claim for Refund. We
have repurposed column y on the Schedule R to report
the lines related to the COBRA premium assistance credit
on Form 943-X. We have added a checkbox at the top of
the Schedule R to tell us which form your Schedule R is
attached to. For more information, see the Instructions for
Form 943 and the Instructions for Form 943-X. If you're
filing Form 943-X to claim the COBRA premium
Generally, the common-law employer of the individuals
that are paid qualified sick or family leave wages is entitled
to the credit for qualified sick and family leave wages,
regardless of whether they use a third-party payer. The
third-party payer isn't entitled to the credits with respect to
the wages and taxes it remits on behalf of clients
(regardless of whether the third party is considered an
"employer" for other purposes).
assistance credit on behalf of any clients, you must file the
2023 revision of Schedule R with Form 943-X.
When Must You File?
If you’re an aggregate Form 943 filer, file Schedule R with
your aggregate Form 943 every year. Agents and
non-certified PEOs may file Form 943 and Schedule R
electronically or by paper submission. CPEOs must
generally file Form 943 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 605,
