W-2 pulling the wrong amount for FICA

W-2 pulling the wrong amount for FICA

Description of Issue

We are exempt from paying FICA taxes and I have five employees that are generating a small amounts of FICA on to their W-2s.

Context
  • Munis
  • W-2 Processing
Cause

Deduction refund was issued on a deduction code that is defined with W-2 code T - Dependent Care.

Resolution
  1. Access Employee W-2 and 1099-R: Payroll > W-2 and 1099-R Processing > Employee W-2 and 1099-R
  2. Click Define enter the reporting year > Click W-2
  3. Search for the employee click Update > enter the appropriate amount for FICA
  4. Click Accept
Additional Information

If employees exceed the dependent care limit, this amount will be added to FICA. If an employee has a negative amount in the yearly accumulators for deductions that are defined with W-2 Code T - Dependent Care, the positive amount will also be added to FICA. Manual adjustment to the W-2 and employee accumulators will be required.
