In the FICA group box, select the Fringe Status and Tax Status for Old Age Disabilty and Medicare.

• Fringe Status represents the employer's portion and includes Active and Inactive options
• Tax Status represents the employee's portion and includes Active, Deferred, Exempt, and Inactive options
• If you select Active from the Fringe Status or Tax Status drop-down, the Taxable Wages and Tax Amount are both updated.
• If you select Deferred from the Tax Status drop-down, the Taxable Wages will be updated but the Tax Amount is .00.
• If you select Exempt from the Tax Status drop-down, the Taxable Wages and the Tax Amount is .00.
• If you select Inactive from the Fringe Status or Tax Status, no rows will exist to track Taxable Wages or Tax Amount.

 

Select Standard or Optional tax rate from the drop-down.

• Select Standard when the employee has one job, a simple tax situation, and Step 2 not checked. This creates a withholding close to normal annual tax liability
• Select Optional when the employee has multiple jobs, a working spouse, wants more withheld, or Step 2 is checked. This prevents under-withholding by applying higher marginal rates.

 

The Dependent Withholding is the number of employee's dependents.

Record any non-wage income that an employee receives during the year that is not subject to payroll withholding, such as interest, dividends, retirement income, or freelance work.
