Do I need to figure in the MinnesotaCare tax into my quarterly taxes, or just as part of my yearly taxes. Thanks!

Hey @KB108, according to the Minnesota Department of Revenue, you will want to pay quarterly payments specifically for the MNCare Tax. Payments must be made electronically by April 15, July 15, and October 15 of the current year and January 15 of the following year. The tax rate for 2023 is 1.6% of your taxable receipts.

My colleague gave a great answer. I think you'll find this additional information helpful:

*"If your annual (calendar year) MinnesotaCare tax will be less than $500, your total tax is due by March 15 of the year following the year in which you received the receipts."

*"If your total annual MinnesotaCare tax will be $500 or more, you must make regular quarterly tax deposits - payments - during the year: April 15, July 15, October 15, and January 15 of the following year."
