BAIiDINGER'B FEDERAL TAX HORIZONS 5--Compensation And Employee Expehse All compensation for services must be^renJJfted without subtracting any payroll deductions such as income and social security taxes withheld, group insurance premiums, savings bond subscriptions and the like. If you worked for more than one employer in 1961 and together they withheld more than $144.00 social security tax (F.I.C.A. * tax), then you may claim the excess over $144 as a credit on your income tax". To take this credit, write "F.I.C.A. tax" in the space under "Where Employed" and enter the ainount in excess of $144 in Column (b) of Line 1. If your company sends you on business trips, you must be prepared to give an accounting to him or to Uncle Sam unless you fit a recently adopted per diem basis exception which is up to 125 per cent of the rate paid to Federal employees. IRS -has approved higher allowances in the special situation. Before August 14, 1961, a Federal employee received $12 per diem and 10c a mile allowance. Thus, other employees may consider $15 per diem and 12 Vic a mile as the substitute for specific accounting. After August 13, the Federal employee's per diem has been raised to $16 and the mileage to 12c a mile. This means that other employees may get a per diem of $20 and 15c a mile without making an accounting on the tax return. On the other hand, if you don't fit the per diem pattern, read on. 1. If your employer requires you to account for the expenses and the payments equal expenses, then you need not consider the same on Line 1 unless the payments exceed expenses, then the "Excess reimbursements" must be reported on Line 1. But if the traveling, transportation or outside salesman's expenses exceed the payments from the employer, the excess may be deducted in calculating the figure to be entered as "Wages, etc." in Column (a). You are required to attach an explanatory statement to the return which shows (a) what has been received from or charged (by credit cards, etc.) to the employer for business expense, ( b ) a b r e a k d o w n of t h e e x penses into classes like transportation, meals and lodging while away from home, entertainment, and other business expenses, as well as the number of days away from home of business and the nature of your job. If you wish, you can get Form 2106 from the District Director to be used or followed by you. 2. If your employer does not require you to account to him, then you must attach an explanatory statement of what was received and what was spent for travel, etc. and Form 2106 is your best bet. Remember, in this connection that unless you are an outside salesman any business expense-- like entertainment--may be deductible on Line 1 only to the extent of any reimbursement received from the employer. If you spent more than the amount reimbursed you will have to claim the same as an itemized deduction on Page 2 and you lose it if you take the standard deduction. Sick Pay Many employers have wage continuation plans to cover sick or injured employees. So if you were hospitalized, the exemption of up to $100 a week is available, if you were absent because of injury, the exemption of up to $100 a week is available. On the other hand, if you are absent from work and stay at home, the exemption does not cover payments for the first 7.calendar $ays in the period of absence. Let us take some examples. 1. John is absent from work for a week because of sickness and he is hospitalized for one day. The employer pays John as usual $125 '(before withholding) under the wage continuation plan. However, when John gets his W-2 from the employer, all of the compensation for the year is shown and does not show anything as to the sick pay exclusion. John will be able to show $100 oh Line 3 of Page 1 and deduct it from Line 2. John should attach a statement explaining the item. He might find Form 2440 easier to use. Of course, if his employer keeps records of the payments and shows the same as a separate item oh Form W-2, then John will not have to file the statement or Form 2440. 2. Henry is injured on the job and stays home for 3 days. His regular work week is 5 days. His weekly pay is $150 before withholding. , Thus Henry received $90 under the wage continuation plan for the 3 days of absence. He will be entitled to claim $60 on Line 3, Page 1, because the $100 execption breaks down to $20 a day for the 5 day week. 3. Mary took sick and stayed home for 14 days. Her employer paid her $100 a week under his wage continuation plan. Since the first 7 calendar days are not covered because Mary did not go to hospital for one day and because she was ill rather than injured, Mary will be able, to exclude only $100 on Line 3 of Pagfe 1 if all of her compensation is included dt Lihe 1. 4. Bill has hot reached normal retirement age. Urider a pension plan but he is ill and is to be retired for disability. Bill will be able to take advantage of the "sick pay" exemption until he retiches the age at which a healthy employee could retire without a reduction of benefits. Other Health Benefits 1. Mike and his employer contribute to a health fund, then any benefits attributable to Mike's contributions are excludable by Mike without any limit. 2. Workrrifch's compensation, reimbursement for medical expenses aftd payments for loss of limb, sight* fete, are also exempt. These do not count in applying the $100 a week limitation on the exception of wage continuation plans and neither does the amount received from the health insurance company.
