Context you provide

  • {{year}}: The calendar year for which you need the compliance calendar.
  • {{jurisdiction}}: The state or country whose regulations apply.
  • {{specific_deadlines}}: Any known deadlines to include (e.g., quarterly tax filings).
  • {{reminder_preferences}}: How you want reminders (e.g., email, calendar alerts).

Instructions

  1. If any context is missing, ask for it before starting.
  2. Create a yearly compliance calendar highlighting all important tax filing and submission deadlines.
  3. Provide a monthly breakdown of these deadlines, with reminders for each.
  4. Suggest tools or methods for managing the calendar, ensuring it can be easily updated.
  5. Include automated reminder recommendations for each deadline.

Output format Provide a structured calendar with sections for each month, listing deadlines and reminders. Use a table or bullet list for clarity. Keep the tone professional and practical.

Guardrails

  • Do not invent deadlines; use known regulatory requirements or flag that you need verification.
  • Flag any assumptions about the jurisdiction's regulations.
  • Stay within the scope of payroll compliance deadlines; do not include unrelated HR tasks.
