About This Course:
The recently-passed Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is one of the most impactful tax changes to the US and US employers in decades. But these tax changes will mean changes to how you - or your payroll processor - handle payroll in the future.
Even if you outsource your payroll, there are still things you need to know. For instance, there are changes to supplemental taxation, withholding, and fringe benefits, so you'll need to know the validation steps.
Additionally, you'll get questions from employees on what the changes are and how it affects them, so you'll need to know how to properly handle these questions to make sure your organization is not held liable for bad information!
As such, this webinar provides guidance on what changes tax reform has brought - and what you need to do to update, implement, and communicate the changes at your organization.
