Tax Subscription News
for year 2014

• FEDERAL TAX
  The IRS has released new tax rates for 2014. The big changes that they had planned for new rates for the Head of Household and the Married filing separately no longer apply.
• SOCIAL SECURITY and MEDICARE
  The Social Security and Medicare structure is the same as last year. That is, the employee and the employer rates are the same at 6.2% for Social Security. Medicare will again extract an additional .9% of wages in excess of $200,000. This is on the employee only.
• STATE ISSUES
  This tax subscription supports all state taxes. The following states have updated their tax rates for 2014:

  Alabama	California
  Delaware	Idaho
  Kansas	New York
  North Carolina

• REPORTS 941
  The form is pretty much the same as last year with the exception of the removal of the Cobra payments. The new form is brought over during the Tax Update and no further installation is need.
• REPORTS W2
  There have been no changes to the W2 this year. Transitional relief continues this year for the reporting on the Affordable Health Care Act. That means that it’s optional. If you desire to report it, we have it available for you.
• MAGNETIC MEDIA
  New contact information fields have been added to the RA record. Our Mag Media program has been modified to accept these changes. However, Accuwage is accepting the Mag Media without these added fields.

  Accuwage for tax year 2013 is available for testing your Mag Media report. Download it directly from the Social Security site. Select the first download in the Quick Links column.

  The reporting of the Affordable Health care Act is for the employee’s benefit only, so it’s not a part of the Mag Media.
