Payroll Tax Holiday

09 September 2020 StephanieE
On August 8, 2020, President Trump signed an executive order calling for a deferral of the employees’ portion of the payroll Social Security tax from September 1, 2020 through the end of the year. On August 28, 2020, the Department of Treasury and IRS issued guidance for implementing the executive order. If you want to offer the payroll tax holiday to your employees, Red Wing Software recommends consulting your tax accountant to determine the best way to handle the change to your payrolls. If you have any questions about how to implement your plan in CenterPoint Payroll, contact Red Wing Software Technical Support.

CARES Act COVID-19 Reporting Updates

13 August 2020 StephanieE
Congress recently passed coronavirus tax relief bills (CARES Act) to help businesses deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 Form 941, through our Aatrix tax forms software, is now available. If you have been using our recommended CARES Act COVID-19 paid leave setup process with the ability to select Retention Credit pay runs outlined in the document below, the 2020 Form 941 will automatically perform the new required calculations. If you did not follow the CenterPoint COVID paid leave setup process, the COVID-19 information will need to be manually entered on the 941 form in Aatrix (Retention Credit pay runs can still be selected). CenterPoint Payroll also has access to Form 7200 - Advance Payment of Employer Credits Due to COVID-19, and other CARES Act COVID-19 reports including PPP Payroll Cost reports to assist in completing the PPP Loan Forgiveness Application.
Click here to view documentation on CenterPoint Payroll and COVID-19 Paid Leave. Or from within CenterPoint Payroll, select Help > CenterPoint Help, and then enter COVID-19 in the Search bar.
