A salried employee has the exempt box checked. There is still federal withholding money taken out. Why?
Thanks.
Exempt means "don't calculate tax using the tax tables", but if any "Extra Withholding" is entered, then there will be a tax of that amount:
Could that be what you're seeing?
This is desktop. That's what I figured. Scouts honor, the salaried employee has the exempt checked and still has Federal withholding. Extra withholding is zero. She did fill out a newer (2020 or later). Could that have anything to do with this?\\
I don't know for sure. What happens if you change the numbers there to 0.00, maybe one field at a time, and then start to create a new paycheck? Does anything change the tax calculation?
