Overview of the webinar

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 changed the supplemental rate for the first time in many years. However, it did not change the basic requirements for withholding supplemental wages as laid out by the IRS. And managing the taxation of supplemental pay can be a complex challenge fraught with errors and quite costly to correct.  One wrong step by payroll and the company could face severe penalties for everything from failure to withhold the correct tax (bad enough!) to actual wage theft (rare but can happen). This webinar covers the basics for payroll professionals on how to properly tax any supplemental payment including bonuses, severance pay, and fringe benefits.
