Overview

Texas has no state income tax, so there is no withholding requirement. Texas employers subject to unemployment insurance must instead file a quarterly wage and tax report with the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC).

The TaxBandits API supports the automation of Form C-3, Texas's quarterly UI wage and tax report.

Forms supported

FormTypeFiling frequencyDue date
Form C-3UIQuarterlyLast day of the month following the quarter end

Texas has no state income tax; therefore no withholding filing required by the state.

Key compliance notes

  • Zero filing required. Form C-3 must be filed every quarter, even if no wages were paid or no tax is due.

Before filing, you can simulate the entire verification flow in our Sandbox environment without submitting real data to state agencies. See how

Available endpoints

Each endpoint below is specific to Texas's withholding Form C-3.

To use the following endpoints, you must first call the Auth method to obtain an access token. Include this token in your request header as a Bearer token. Refer to OAuth 2.0 Authentication for details on JWT-based authentication.

  • Create – Generates a new Form C-3 quarterly UI wage and tax report for the specified quarter.
  • Update – Modifies the details of a previously created Form C-3 report before it's transmitted.
  • Get – Retrieves the details of a previously created Form C-3 report.

Common endpoints (utility)

These endpoints share the same payload structure across all states, and apply uniformly whether you're working with a withholding form or a UI form:

  • List: Retrieves a list of forms created for a specific business or period.
  • Delete: Removes an in-progress form before it's transmitted to the state.
  • Transmit: Submits a completed form to the corresponding state agency.
  • RequestPdfUrls: Returns a link to download the PDF version of a form (final).
  • Status: Checks whether a submitted form was accepted or rejected by the state.

As an alternative to polling the Status endpoint, you can configure a webhook for the event type Status Payroll Filings Status Change to receive automated status updates.
