Employer Paid healthcare on paystub

Is there a way to get employer paid healthcare insurance to show up on monthly pay stubs? Yes, we can have it record on the W-2, but is there a way to show how much is paid for them every month on their monthly pay stub?

Thank you for your help!

Employer Paid healthcare on paystub

It's good to see you here, @dfmiller. I'm here to provide some insights about employee pay stubs. 

 

We can let the employer paid healthcare insurance show up on monthly pay stubs. Let's just make sure to enable this option. 

 

Here's how: 

  1. Open your company file.
  2. Go to the Edit menu at the top portion.
  3. Select the Preferences tab and choose the Payroll & Employees.
  4. Click the Company tab.
  5. Go to the Pay Stub and Voucher Printing button.
  6. Put a checkmark to the box next to Non-taxable company items and click OK.

 

Additionally, I'll be adding these articles for future help:

Employer Paid healthcare on paystub

@Rubielyn_J 

RE: Currently, the option to show the employer-paid healthcare insurance on a monthly pay stub is unavailable. Employer contributions will not show since employee pay items are the only ones you can see in the paystub. 

 

Huh. Really? What, then, is the option to print these very things for? You know, the option that was added long, long ago? Why don't you know about it?

 

Let's break it down for a moment:

"the option to show the employer-paid healthcare insurance on a monthly pay stub is unavailable."

Except that it is.

"Employer contributions will not show since employee pay items are the only ones you can see in the paystub."

Sounds reasonable, except that isn't true at all. You made that up. It hasn't been true for nearly 20 years.

As it turns out, items like the portion of medical insurance that employers pay are easy to show on a pay stub, along with most other employer contribution items like a retirement account match. Why Intuit seems to not know this is unfortunate, but not surprising. It fits the pattern here lately, where reps consistently make up answers that seem like perhaps they might be right except for the nagging fact that they're not.

 

To turn on the option, go to Edit | Preferences | Payroll & Employees | Company | Pay Stub and Voucher Printing.

 

Then check the option to print the company items:Capture2.JPG

 

Then when you print the paycheck or pay stub, you'll see these items:
