Here are answers to some questions from many of us:
 Does this mean that next year's W2 will have 27 pays reported?
No.  Next year’s W-2 will have 26 pays in it.  I counted out the payrolls for next year and in the calendar year January through December 2012 the are 26 pays that will be reported on the 2012 W-2.  However, there were 27 pays that reported on last year’s W-2 (2011).  It’s just the timing of when payrolls hit. 

The 26 pays for 2012 as well as the one carried over from this year?
This is answered above.  It’s not pay periods that are carried over.  The W-2 strictly reports pay that was received in the calendar year from January through December.  For IRS reporting there is significant difference from pay earned versus pay received.

 Why isn't it reported that way on our pay stubs?

 It is reported correctly on your pay stub.  Your pay stub will report Year To Date pays received from January 1 through December 31 of a calendar year.  The last paycheck you receive in December of any calendar year should match your W-2.  We have reported it that way on your pay stub, with the exception of the first pay stub in January where we accidentally carried over the previous year’s earnings.  As mentioned in my previous email we have corrected that mistake. 

Are the pay stubs reporting the 12/23/11 pay for both 2011 and 2012?

No.  The pay period ending is only being reported on the 2012 pay stubs.  There is no pay stub in 2011 reporting the pay period ending 12/23/2011.  That pay period was paid on 1/4/2012 and will be reported in 2012.

 For W-2 reporting, think in terms of when you actually got paid, not in terms of a pay periods ending or earned.  Pay periods end about a week and a half before staff members actually receive their pay.  The IRS is only interested in the pay an individual actually receives in a calendar year.  As a result, you will only get taxed on payments received in that year, nothing more, nothing less.

 I hope this helps.  If you still have questions feel free to contact Natalie, Herb, or Robert Bruchak.  They want to  make sure we clear up questions that are out there and staff members have confidence in the Business Office.


The Chester Upland School District School Board has appointed Dr.  Tony Watson,Acting Superintendent.
