- Title 68
Failure to furnish statement to employee.
A. If an employer fails to file a return or to pay to the
Oklahoma Tax Commission the withholding tax within the time
prescribed by this article, there shall be imposed on him a penalty
equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount of tax, or ten percent
(10%) of the amount of the underpayment of tax, if such failure is
not corrected within fifteen (15) days after the tax becomes
delinquent. There shall also be imposed on such employer interest
at the rate of one and one-quarter percent (1 1/4%) per month during
the period such underpayment exists. For the purposes of this
paragraph, "underpayment" shall mean the excess of the amount of the
tax required to be paid over the amount thereof actually paid on or
before the date prescribed therefor. Such penalty and interest
shall be added to and become a part of the tax assessed. However,
the Tax Commission shall not collect the penalty assessed if the
taxpayer remits the tax and interest within sixty (60) days of the
mailing of a proposed assessment or voluntarily pays the tax upon
the filing of an amended return.
B. Any employer who is required under the provisions of Section
2385.3 of this title to furnish a statement to an employee, but who
willfully fails to furnish such employee the statement required by
said section, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction
shall be punished by a fine of not exceeding One Hundred Dollars
($100.00), or by imprisonment for not more than six (6) months in
the county jail, or by both such fine and imprisonment for each such
offense.
C. The provisions of subsections A and B of this section shall
also apply to every person making payments of winnings subject to
withholding.
