Elections - Judges Income Tax Information
Will I get a W-2 because I worked Election Day?
For most, the answer will be no. However, depending on the amount of election wages earned the answer could be yes. Here is a schedule that describes when a W-2 would be issued and related FICA tax information:
· Wages $1-599, W-2 not issued, not subject to FICA
· Wages $600-1,499, W-2 issued, not subject to FICA
· Wages $1,500+, W-2 issued, subject to FICA
The above represents the 2012 FICA coverage threshold of $1,500 (this threshold typically changes each calendar year).
Do I have to report the Election wages on my Federal and State tax returns?
Please contact your tax accountant.
