Hi our company has the following:
Health insurance where the company pays the majority of premium with the employee paying a portion PRETAX (i.e. IRS Section 125)
Employer has implemented a new Spousal Surcharge program (typical). The HR manager set this up as a separate deduction from medical premiums and has ordered that it be coded as POST TAX. So in addition to the $1500 per year surcharge payment to company, employees must pay income tax on the $1500.
Tax director says this is crazy. HR VP and Manager have zero tax experience but made this position from whatever 3rd party benefits vendor (clerk) we subscribe to. I NEED HELP !
I need specific law that will force HR to recompute W-2 forms for 2015 and make this pre-tax. Of course this is just a reduction of company contribution, nothing else. HR claims it is not premium, but another unrelated penalty and therefore taxable. HELP !!!
