Please review these important year-end reminders:

The 2% employee FICA tax "holiday", as passed by Congress and signed into law on February 22, 2012, expires on December 31, 2012. Payroll payments received starting on January 1, 2013 will revert back to the original 6.2% employee withholding rate for FICA.

This includes the December monthly payroll which is paid on January 2, 2013 and the bi-weekly payroll paid on January 4, 2013. FMS payroll will be processing these two payrolls in the next few days, so they will reflect the additional 2% withholding. If the tax law changes retroactively, FMS payroll will process adjustments to reflect the change in a future payment.

Please refer to the following IRS webpage which describes the payroll tax cut for 2012 only: http://www.irs.gov/uac/Payroll-Tax-Cut-Extended-to-the-End-of-2012;-Revised-Payroll-Tax-Form-Now-Available-to-Employers

FICA Adjustment 2012:

The decision to extend the FICA 2% cut was not approved until AFTER the monthly payroll (pay 1/3) was closed. As a result the FICA taken on that check was 6.2%. To make the retroactive adjustment, it effectively reduces the amount of Social Security to be withheld to 2.2% for the January 31st paycheck only. This one-time adjustment will increase your
January 31st paycheck.

For anyone who 1/3/12 was their final check we will be working with the tax area to issue refunds in early February. The table has been changed now that the extension has been approved and the first biweekly pay will be at the lower 4.2% FICA rate. The extension was only for 2 months, so we will be revisiting these rates again at that point.
