If 'Non-cash Taxable Benefit' pay type was not used during payroll processing, the Taxable Benefits (NC3) payment amount must be entered under the CORE/ADJUSTMENT JOURNAL, the following would need to be done, if the district wants the amount to appear on the W2 as wages and NOT in Box 14 as Fringe Benefits:

  • Using the Taxable Benefits Type, this amount would only be entered under the 001 Federal Payroll Item. This will update the total and taxable gross totals on the Federal , State, City (If applicable) OSDI and Medicare records during W2 Report. No manual adjustments are needed for the Gross and Taxable Gross amounts.
