Medical Insurance Reimbursement for S Corp Officer

Hey there, @MBshutterup. 

I'm more than happy to help you with your question about the medical insurance reimbursement for S-Corp Officer. Let's work together and double-check the set up of the payroll item created. I suggest using the EZ Setup when setting up an S-corporation medical payroll item.  This tool will choose the taxation of your payroll item for you. Here's how to set up the payroll item based on your employee packages: 

If you're a 2% shareholder and offer the same medical insurance plan to all your employees

1. Go to the List menu and then Payroll Item List. 
2. Click on the Payroll Item drop-down arrow and select New. 
3. Press EZ Setup and then Next. 
4. Choose Insurance Benefits and then Next. 
5. Pick S Corp Medical and then Next until Finish. 

If the 2%-shareholders have a different plan from the other employees or do not offer the plan to their employees at all

1. Go through steps 1-3 from above. 
2. Hit Other Additions and then Next. 
3. Press Taxable fringe benefits and then Next until Finish.
