COLUMBIA, MD – April 7, 2025 –As the April 15 tax filing deadline approaches, business owners must act quickly to stay ahead of payroll compliance requirements and risk penalties for missteps. INFINITI HR urges employers of all sizes to take immediate action to ensure full compliance with 2024 tax regulations, especially those that impact payroll processing, employee classification, and risk management planning.

With workforce dynamics evolving and oversight intensifying, tax season is more than just filing forms—it’s an opportunity to evaluate your HR strategy, optimize tax credits, and reduce compliance risk.

INFINITI HR, a leading provider of customized HR outsourcing solutions, is equipping business owners with timely guidance, payroll audit support, and strategic insight to meet the 2025 tax filing deadline with confidence. With mounting pressure on employers to retain talent and reduce financial liabilities, managing payroll during business growth has become a critical part of any tax strategy.

Understanding the Stakes — 2025 Is Not Business as Usual

​According to IRS Topic No. 653, failing to file an accurate tax return by the April 15, 2025, deadline may result in hefty penalties, audit risks, and lost tax credit opportunities—especially for small businesses handling multistate payroll compliance.

In addition, workforce instability is expected to continue into 2025. A December 2024 report indicated that 38% of employees plan to leave their jobs this year, making employee retention and payroll continuity essential to financial planning.

Top Employer Tax Tips from INFINITI HR for April 2025

1. Claim the Credits You Deserve – Don’t leave money on the table. Programs like the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) and employee retention credits offer significant savings. INFINITI HR’s team helps identify qualifying candidates and streamline credit documentation.
2. Avoid Classification Pitfalls – Misclassifying employees as independent contractors remains one of the most common—and costly—mistakes. Ensure your employee classification for payroll is accurate to avoid fines and legal complications. Our compliance specialists audit your workforce structure to minimize legal risk.
3. Stay Current with Tax Law Changes – From state-specific mandates to evolving federal requirements, compliance risk management best practices are crucial. INFINITI HR clients benefit from up-to-date HR support tailored to each jurisdiction.
4. Use INFINITI HR Resources to Prepare – Access our compliance checklists and downloadable guides to organize your payroll, benefits, and classification data ahead of the filing deadline. Our automated payroll systems also help reduce the chance of filing errors.

Why This Matters to Business Owners

Tax season is a key moment to re-evaluate your workforce strategy. Employers that prioritize long-term planning—such as employee development and retention—see reduced turnover and improved ROI. In fact, a global survey said employees are more likely to stay with companies that invest in professional development. 

Develop a Risk Management Plan

Given the cost of turnover is expected to reach $1 trillion in 2025, developing a risk management plan that includes employee satisfaction and retention is essential. INFINITI HR supports business owners with tools that align payroll, HR, and compliance functions.

Act Now to Stay Ahead

As April 15 rapidly approaches, employers should take proactive steps to stay compliant and avoid costly errors. Schedule a consultation with INFINITI HR to explore how HR outsourcing can:

• Streamline payroll processing
• Ensure classification and benefits compliance
• Unlock tax credits and minimize risk exposure

COLUMBIA, MD – As small businesses navigate the complexities of workforce management and tax planning in 2025, INFINITI HR is helping employers unlock significant tax savings through the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC). Did you know that through the WOTC you may be able to claim tax credits for eligible hires (including retroactively), reduce your tax liability, ensure proper certification, and plan for future hiring?

The WOTC program is designed to encourage businesses to expand their workforce while benefiting from substantial tax credits. This federal tax credit provides financial incentives for businesses that hire individuals from certain targeted groups who face barriers to employment. Employers who hire qualified workers, such as veterans, individuals with disabilities, or long-term unemployed individuals, may be eligible to receive tax credits of up to $9,600 per new hire. These credits can directly reduce a company’s tax liability, leading to significant savings. Retroactive credits may also apply.

“With rising operational costs, small businesses are looking for every advantage to maximize savings while supporting workforce diversity,” INFINITI HR Client Services Manager Joan Stewart said. “Through our expertise as a full-service PEO, we can help you lower the amount of taxes owed and integrate WOTC screening into your hiring process to maximize savings for next year’s tax filing.”

As an IRS-certified PEO, INFINITI HR offers a seamless approach to unlocking tax savings with the WOTC. From pre-screening candidates to handling the necessary paperwork, INFINITI HR ensures businesses can take full advantage of available tax credits without the administrative burden.

Now is the time for small businesses to capitalize on these savings. By partnering with INFINITI HR, employers can strengthen their workforce, enhance their bottom line, and contribute to economic growth—all while benefiting from federal tax incentives.
