You will need to file a zero quarterly return in order to avoid receiving a delinquent notice for failure to file. You will not need to file a zero monthly report. If you do not plan on hiring any employees in the near future, you may file Form A-1 and mark the return as Final on line 1 to place your account on inactive status. This will eliminate the need to file the zero returns. You may also inactivate or reactivate the account at a later time by calling the Withholding Tax Section at (334) 242-1300.
