[Browse the store](/toolkits) Who it is for Owners, office managers and bookkeepers who run payroll for employees working in Florida, a state with no income tax to withhold, from the first hire to the year-end forms. Not the right fit if Your employees work outside Florida: get that state's kit, or the 2027 Employer Compliance Bundle for several states. Not a payroll service, and not a legal review of your policies. Why it is different - Built only from our Florida data files, checked November 2026 against 22 official pages, among them Florida Department of Revenue (reemployment tax); Florida Department of Revenue: Reemployment Tax Rate Information; Florida DOR: Do I have to file a personal income tax return in Florida?; IRS Publication 1220 (Rev. 5-2026), Part A Sec. 12, Table 1: Participating States and Codes; Florida Department of Revenue: New Hire Reporting Form Instructions; New Employee Eligibility and E-Verify: Frequently Asked Questions, Florida Department of Revenue; HB 197 (2026) staff analysis, Commerce Committee, Florida House (current-law section); HB 197 (2026) bill history, Florida Senate, plus Paycor and Insperity (a vetted secondary source, marked in the kit) where no official page could be read. - Every checklist item is confirmed and linked to its source: an official page, or where none could be read, a vetted secondary source marked as such. - The workbook recalculates with zero formula errors and dates the Florida new-hire steps for you. What is inside - **Start here.** How to use the kit, the 18 confirmed Florida rules at a glance and the 0 items to confirm. - **Florida 2027 checklist.** Eight steps from unemployment tax registration to year-end filing, each confirmed rule with its source link and check date, from Florida Department of Revenue (reemployment tax), Florida Department of Revenue: Services for Employers, Florida Division of Workers' Compensation (Department of Financial Services). What it confirms: open a state unemployment tax account: Florida DOR: register for reemployment tax through the Department's website, which walks you through an interview to find your obligations (Florida Business Tax Application, DR-1); taxable wage base for 2027: $7,000 per employee in 2027 ($7,000 in 2026); new employer tax rate: 2.7% for a new employer; quarterly wage reports and payments: Florida DOR: the RT-6 report and payment are due by the end of the month after the quarter; an electronic payment must be initiated by 5 p.m; state income tax withholding: No state income tax to withhold; report each new hire to the state: Within 20 days of hire (new hires and rehires); e-Verify for private employers: Private employers with 25 or more employees must use E-Verify for each new employee, within three business days after the employee starts working for pay; minimum wage now (2026): $15.00 an hour; minimum wage change in 2027: $15.00 an hour; no scheduled change in our data; tipped employees: Cash wage of at least $11.98 an hour in 2027, with tips making up the rest; paid sick leave: No statewide paid sick leave law for private employers; meal breaks for adults: No state meal-break requirement for adults: the US Department of Labor's state meal period table for adult employees (revised January 1, 2023; checked November 2026) doesn't list Florida, and its footnote names Florida only among states with meal periods specifically for minors; rest breaks for adults: no state rule; No state rest-break requirement: Florida isn't in the US DOL table of state paid rest-period rules (revised January 1, 2023), which says states not listed don't require paid rest periods; breaks for workers under 18: Minors 15 and under, and 16- and 17-year-olds scheduled for 8 or more hours in a day, can't work more than 4 hours in a row without a 30-minute meal break; workers' compensation insurance: Non-construction employers with four or more employees, counting business owners who are corporate officers or LLC members; final pay when you let someone go: Florida has no state final-pay deadline: Paycor's and Insperity's 50-state charts (secondary sources) both list "No law" for firings and resignations, which matches our reading of Chapter 448; final pay when an employee quits: Florida has no state final-pay deadline: Paycor's and Insperity's 50-state charts (secondary sources) both list "No law" for firings and resignations, which matches our reading of Chapter 448; state copies of W-2s and 1099s: No state income tax, so there is no state 1099 or W-2 filing to make on the pages we opened. - **2027 deadline calendar.** 9 dates our Florida files state: 4 quarterly due dates from Florida Department of Revenue (reemployment tax), with weekend dates flagged and a month-by-month planner for your own. - **New hire and pay change checklist.** One page per hire, with the report to Florida Department of Revenue: Services for Employers (new hires reported in 20 days) and the I-9 steps, and one per pay change against the $15.00 minimum wage. - **Florida compliance workbook (Excel).** The Florida dates in a deadline tracker with days left and status, a new-hire sheet that dates each step from the start date (new hires reported in 20 days), and a pay-change sheet that flags any rate below the 2027 floor.
