2% shareholder company paid insurance

[Medlin Software, Dennis]

Opinions?

 

Any ACA changes are not part of this particular issue, the person asking says they are a CPA and the plan in question meets ACA.

 

Person wants the company paid amount to also show as taxable on CA DE9 (state quarterly wage report, not just W2 and W3.  (In this case, 941 is not being asked, although I have yet to find any IRS direction to add it to a 941, we allow it if the customer chooses.)

 

For the CA DE9:

do you show the amount as taxable wages?

if so, as paid?  Just Q4?  Something else?

 

Also, since it is clear CA wants this as taxable, at least on W2, should the company be withholding tax on the company paid amount, and if so, when?

 

Thank you...
