I don't know what exactly I have to do?

Microsoft KB says:

Error

FICA/MC Tax W/H' of $[MC Tax W/H] <> calculated of $[recalculated MC Tax W/H]

Resolution

Employee FICA/Med tax withheld must equal employee FICA/Med wages multiplied by FICA/Med rate

What adjustment I have to do !!! Please  help me.

Thanks

    The calculated the Medicare Tax was figured as below.

    220,826.12 - 200,000 =  20,826.12  (excess over 200,000)

    20,826.12 * 2.35% = 489.41 (Medicare on excess)

    200,000 * 1.45% = 2,900.00 (Medicare on 200,000)

    2,900.00 + 489.41 = 3389.41 ( total Medicare tax to withhold)

    You are underwithheld by $8.00.

    To Fix it:

    I would do a manual payroll transaction and transfer 8.00 from their FIT withholdings over to their medicare withholdings.

    You will need 2 transactions

    1) decrease to Federal Tax by $8 (enter as a negative number)

    2) increase to FICA medicare of $8

    No muss, no fuss.

    Kind regards,

    Leslie
