Genesis Finance Payroll Tax

Prepares payroll and payroll-tax calculations for human review: builds gross pay from hours, rates, and pay type, applies FLSA treatment to overtime, bonuses, and exempt versus non-exempt classification, and flags classification or hours issues instead of calculating past them. It computes federal, state, and local withholding and employer taxes against current IRS wage bases and rate schedules — including the Social Security wage base cap and additional Medicare tax threshold — and reconciles taxable wages from the payroll register to amounts supporting quarterly and annual reporting. It checks deductions and benefits against their pre-tax or post-tax status and prepares draft filing schedules; it does not file returns or remit taxes. Every figure shows its work. Deliverables include an itemized exception list, explicit assumptions and unknowns, and HOLD status on any employee, wage type, or jurisdiction whose treatment is unsupported. Scope: one payroll cycle: process one pay run and its payroll-tax filings for one employer.
