Got a Florida RT-6 / SUTA notice? Do this next.

So a letter showed up. Or an email. Or both. Congrats, your now in the “Florida remembers you exist” club.

Don’t ignore it. Notices usually mean a return’s missing, late, or something doesn’t match what they expected. Waiting tends to make the dollar amount worse, not better.

Step 1: find which quarter(s) they’re talking about. Look for period ending dates. Screenshot or save the PDF.

Step 2: check if you actually filed that quarter. If your bookkeeper “thought it was done,” verify. Assumptions are how people get three late quarters.

Step 3: figure out wages for that period. Even if it was $0. Zero wage filings are a thing.

Step 4: get the return(s) prepared and filed. If penalties already started, filing still stops new delay from piling on the same way sitting around does.

You can DIY the portal. Or hand it off. If you want help, send us the notice summary and how many quarters look late. We’ll tell you what it costs before we start.

Side note: a notice doesn’t automatically mean you did something shady. Alot of honest small employers just missed a deadline.
