    We have an employee with an F1 Visa (which payroll just learned of after 2 pay cycles).   I am wondering what is the best way to have the employee's FICA and Medicare not process. 

    I am thinking to disable those taxes on the PR13.7 for that employee.  Any thoughts or drawbacks to this solution?

     

    Any insight would be much appreciated!

      Colleen-
      PR13.7 is exactly what I used to disable the taxes. I have not heard any drawbacks from payroll yet. I got the answer from Infor Extreme KB 1212065.

        Great.  Thank you.

         

        We were also thinking of setting up a separate Location Code just to identify these folks (well, the one employee now) readily

          A year ago we set an employee up to be exempt from FICA - set up a new location code and disabled those taxes.
          Now the status is changing and we will begin deduction FICA. I changed the employee to a different location that does not have the FICA disabled (in our test environment) and when I ran a check it calculated negative values. That can't be right but not sure where to look and what to change. Can anyone help?

            found the issue... there were credits for the deductions in the pr39!
