Webinar: Payroll Essentials: Fringe Benefits: Taxable or Not?
WC1579 | Course | Basic | Scheduled
Description
Fringe benefits are just another way of paying your employees.
Do you know how to correctly track fringe benefits, as well as apply and report the various withholding tax rules for those fringe benefits? The IRS says fringe benefits must be included in and reported as a part of employee pay, but with any good tax law, there are always exclusions to that rule. Knowing how to handle fringe benefits can be complicated, especially in an area that changes on an annual basis.
Attendees will leave with an understanding of what the requirements are around fringe benefits, what constitutes a fringe benefit, and whether it is taxable or not. We will also explore the evergreen areas of reporting S-Corp Shareholder Health, HSA, and when cash is not taxable compensation.
This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event.
