New FICA limit with payroll crossing calendar years
New FICA limit with payroll crossing calendar years
Description of Issue
My payrolls starts in December but ends in January, will my old, or new FICA limit be enforced?
Context
- Munis
- Payroll Start and Status
Cause
Resolution
The yearly accumulator is updated based on the defined check date of the payroll.
- Go to Payroll Start and Status (Payroll>Payroll Processing>Payroll Start and Status)
- Search for the warrant. Note the Check date field (Example, 01/06/2020).
- Munis will begin a new accumulation toward the FICA limit because the check date of the payroll is in 2020 rather than 2019.
Additional Information
When using the Limit Type Y - CALENDAR YEAR for the FICA deduction, Munis will stop taking the deduction when the yearly accumulator reaches the defined employee and employer limit.
