While Congress didn’t pass the Build Back Better Act in 2021, there are still tax changes that may affect your tax situation for this year. That’s because some tax figures are adjusted annually for inflation. It’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with tax amounts that have changed for this year. For example, the amount you have to earn in 2022 before you can stop paying Social Security on your salary has increased to $147,000 (from $142,800 for 2021). In 2022, you can contribute up to $20,500 to a 401(k) plan (up from $19,500 in 2021). You can contribute another $6,500 catch-up amount to a 401(k) if you’re age 50 or older.

- Comments Off on Businesses with employees who receive tips may be eligible for a tax credit
Are you an employer who owns a business where tipping is customary for providing food and beverages? You may qualify for a valuable tax credit involving the Social Security and Medicare (FICA) taxes that you pay on your employees’ tip income. You claim the credit as part of the general business credit. It’s equal to the employer’s share of FICA taxes paid on tip income in excess of what’s needed to bring your employee’s wages up to $5.15 per hour. In other words, no credit is available to the extent the tip income just brings the employee up to $5.15 per hour, calculated monthly. Other rules may apply. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.
