 <WRAP round intro>This tab is used to establish the rates and maximums used by the system to calculate FICA and Medicare deductions from each paycheck. These tables include the rate to be applied to the gross salary to calculate FICA and Medicare deductions, the maximum salaries for which FICA and Medicare are calculated, and the maximum amount of FICA and Medicare tax regardless of salary amount. The taxed amount is matched by contributions from the district. You must keep this information up to date in order for these calculations to be accurate. This information is available in the IRS Circular E annually and can be updated at any time (go to https://www.irs.gov/forms-instructions to obtain a copy of this publication). <WRAP round intro>This tab is used to establish the rates and maximums used by the system to calculate FICA and Medicare deductions from each paycheck.
