How do I set withholding overrides on the tax card for the US?
You can set tax withholding overrides in Withholding overrides on the card's Federal or state components.
Here are the overrides you can set for these components.
-
Regular Amount
-
Regular Rate
-
Supplemental Amount
-
Supplemental Rate
-
If you enter values for both amount and rate overrides, the amount takes priority over the rate.
-
Regular Amount and Rate overrides apply whenever you perform a payroll run that uses a wage annualization tax method, regardless of earning type or run type.
-
Supplemental Amount and Rate overrides apply whenever you perform a payroll run that doesn't use an annualized or variable rate tax method, regardless of earning type or run type.
-
If there are multiple payroll runs in a pay period, the process applies these overrides in each run.
-
If you enter an Additional Amount in conjunction with a Regular or Supplemental override, the override takes priority and the payroll process ignores the additional amount.
-
If the employee is exempt from federal (FIT) or state income tax (SIT) withholding or wage accumulation, the payroll process ignores these overrides.
-
For employees who want to withhold a specific amount, use the Regular Amount and Supplemental Amount overrides. Don't mark them as exempt.
-
If you've enabled period-to-date calculations, the payroll process doesn't consider the prior run values for these overrides when calculating the current pay period taxes.
