Deadlines for submitting 6-NDFL
6-NDFL calculations are submitted by all tax agents at the end of each quarter. In 2022 the deadlines are:
- for 2022 - until March 01, 2022
- for the first quarter - until May 4, 2022 (April 30th is a day off)
- for the six months - until August 1, 2022 (July 30 and 31 are days off)
- nine months before October 31, 2022
- for 2022 - until March 1, 2022
If the deadline falls on a weekend or holiday , the calculation must be submitted no later than the next business day.
Tax agents submitting calculations in relation to 25 or more insured persons are required to submit it electronically using the TKS.
All others can choose the form (on paper or electronically) at their discretion.
Typically, the calculation is submitted by tax agents to “their” Federal Tax Service, that is, at the place of registration of the company or at the place of registration of the individual entrepreneur. But for certain cases, separate rules are established.
Separate units
A legal entity that has separate divisions submits a calculation at the place of registration of each of them . The form includes the income and personal income tax of employees of this division.
If two separate divisions are registered with the same Federal Tax Service, but they have different OKTMO codes (belong to different municipalities), then 6-NDFL is submitted separately for each of them. If the situation is the opposite, that is, two separate divisions with one OKTMO are registered with different Federal Tax Service Inspectors, then a legal entity can register with one of the inspectorates and report to it under 6-NDFL for both divisions.
It happens that an employee managed to work in different branches during one tax period. If they have different OKTMOs, then you will have to submit several forms.
On the title page of 6-NDFL, if there are divisions, you must indicate:
- TIN of the parent organization;
- Checkpoint of a separate unit;
- OKTMO of the municipality in whose territory the employees’ place of work is located (indicate it in the payment order).
Change of address
If during the tax period to another Federal Tax Service, then two forms 6-NDFL must be submitted to the new place of registration:
- the first - for the period of stay at the previous address, indicating the old OKTMO;
- the second - for the period of stay at the new address, indicating the new OKTMO.
The checkpoint in both forms indicates the one assigned to the new Federal Tax Service.
Nuances of reflecting information in line 100
Example 1
The company entered into a lease agreement for premises with an individual. The contract expires on September 30, 2019. A security alarm was installed with the consent of the landlord, the work was accepted according to the act - 04/10/2019. The company paid for the work on April 13, 2019. The lessor, under the terms of the contractual relationship, does not reimburse expenses.
Question
What date will be the day for the landlord to receive profit from the cost of inseparable improvements?
Answer
Profit in kind is considered received on the day of its transfer (Article 223, paragraph 1, subparagraph 2). In this case, inseparable improvements are accepted at the end of the lease agreement - 09/30/2019. This will include an act of handing over the premises to the landlord (03-04-05 – 79439).
The profit cannot be recognized as received, since the alarm system is in the possession of the tenant. When creating the calculation, put the date in line 100 – 30.09.
Personal income tax is withheld from the profits that individuals. the person will receive it after 09/30/2019. If there is no payment of income by the end of the year, then the fiscal authorities are notified by March 1, 2020 about the impossibility of withholding income tax.

In this section, information is indicated on an accrual basis for the entire reporting period. Line by line filling is presented in the following table.
Table 1. Filling out the lines of section 1 of form 6-NDFL

Attention! If income was taxed with personal income tax at different rates, you need to fill out several blocks of lines 010-050 and indicate information at one rate in each of them. In this case, in lines 060-090 the indicators are reflected in the total amount.
Section 2
Section 2 contains information only for the last 3 months of the reporting period. That is, in section 2 of form 6-NDFL for 2022, you need to indicate data for the fourth quarter.
The section contains several blocks of 5 fields that reflect the following information:
- on line 100 - date of receipt of income
- on line 110 - the date of personal income tax withholding from this income
- on line 120 - date of transfer of tax to the budget
- on line 130 - the amount of income received
- on line 140 - the amount of personal income tax withheld
The main difficulties when filling out section 2 are determined by the dates of receipt of income and transfer of personal income tax. They differ for different types of income. To avoid confusion, we recommend checking the following table.
The table does not contain a column with the date of tax withholding, since most often it coincides with the date of receipt of income . Exceptions to this rule are below the table.
Table 2. Determination of dates for 6-NDFL
Income | date of receiving | Deadline for transferring personal income tax |
Salary Prepaid expense* Bonus (as part of salary) | The last day of the month for which the salary or bonus for the month included in wages was calculated | No later than the day following the day of payment of the bonus or salary upon final payment |
One-time bonus (annual, quarterly, in connection with any event) | Bonus payment day | |
Vacation pay, sick pay | Pay day | No later than the last day of the month in which vacation pay or temporary disability benefits were paid |
Payments upon dismissal (salary, compensation for unused vacation) | Last day of work | No later than the day following the day of payment |
Dividends | Pay day | |
For LLCs - no later than the day following the day of payment. For JSC - no later than one month from the earliest of the following dates:
| ||
Help | Pay day | No later than the day following the day of payment |
Gifts in kind | Day of payment (transfer) of the gift | No later than the day following the day the gift is issued |
*Explanation. Personal income tax is not deducted from the advance payment - it will be deducted from the salary for the second part of the month. However, it happens that the advance is paid on the last day of the month . In this case, it is recognized as wages for the month, and personal income tax is withheld as from wages.
The date of receipt of income and personal income tax withholding do not coincide in the following cases:
- When paying daily allowances in excess of established standards. The tax withholding day is considered to be the nearest day of payment of wages in the month in which the advance report is approved.
- When receiving material benefits - expensive gifts, other income. The tax withholding day is considered to be the nearest salary payment day.
When filling out lines 100-120, all incomes for which all 3 dates coincide respectively are summed up. That is, you can sum up your salary and monthly bonuses. But quarterly bonuses, vacation pay, sick leave will be shown separately. The form will contain the required number of blocks of lines 100-140.
Important! When filling out line 130, income is indicated in full. That is, there is no need to reduce it by the amount of personal income tax and deductions.
Filling out line 100 if earnings were paid both in cash and in kind
Management decided to pay wages for July on August 5, partly in cash from the expense account, and partly in products in the amount of 25% of earnings with the written consent of employees. This procedure does not contradict Article 131 of the Labor Code.
In this case, profit both in monetary terms and in kind is recognized as wages received on the last day of the month for which the accrual was made (Article 223, paragraph 2 of the Tax Code).
Personal income tax on profits received in kind, in this case, is withheld from the monetary part of the income, since payments are made on the same day.
Filling example
Let's look at the procedure for filling out Form 6-NDFL for the year using the example of Romashka LLC. For the fourth quarter of 2022, the following information is available:
- number of employees - 6
- the total income of employees for the year amounted to 1,440,000 rubles (120,000 rubles per month)
- all employees are entitled to a standard deduction for a child in the amount of 1,400 rubles. The total amount of the deduction was: 1,400 x 6 x 12 = 100,800 rubles
- amount of calculated personal income tax on income: (1,440,000 rubles - 100,800) * 13% = 174,096 rubles (14,508 rubles per month)
- the amount of personal income tax withheld for the year was 8 = 159,588 rubles, since the tax on the December salary is subject to withholding in January
Section 1 is filled out like this:
Section 1
The following table lists the fourth quarter transactions that will be needed to be reported in Section 2.
