Description of Issue

My election workers didn't generate W-2s.

Context

Cause

Election worker Job Class was not defined on the Dependent Care/Election Workers/Retirement tab of Step 3 on the W-2 Wizard
Election workers did not make enough to contribute to FICA or Medicare

Resolution

W-2 records will need to be manually added for the election workers because they did not contribute to FICA and Medicare:

Access Payroll > W-2 and 1099-R Processing > Employee W-2 and 1099-R.
Click Define. Enter year 20XX and click W-2
Click Add to begin creating the W-2 record

Additional Information

Munis will only generate a W-2 for an election worker if they earn at least $600.00 in gross wages and contribute to FICA and Medicare deductions.
- The create process of W-2s has logic where if the employee's Job Class is defined as an Election Worker and the gross is under $600.00, it will not create a W-2.
If the employees make over the $600.00, they will generate a W-2, however their wages are not subject to FICA/Medicare until they reach the limit ($2000.00 for 2021)
