(Use yourpolicy number, inception date, and FEIN to create an account.)TAXABLE INCOMEPublic Law 96-601 (Tax Administrative Provisions Revision Act of 1979) requires that employers compute the taxableportion of the New York State mandated disability benefits paid to employees. The amount must be stated on eachW-2 statement provided to the employee by January 31st of each year.In general, sick pay received by an employee under a noncontributory plan is included in the employee’s grossincome. However, if the employee contributes to the cost of the sick pay plan, any benefits received that are allocableto the employee’s contribution are excludable from the employee’s gross income. Under current Internal RevenueService (IRS) regulations, the excludable portion of sick pay is determined by calculating the ratio between theemployee’s contribution and the net premiums during the calendar year in which the sick pay is received. If theemployee’s contribution for a package of benefits is not allocated by type of coverage, the excludable portion of sickpay is determined by calculating the ratio between the employee’s total contributions under the plan and the netpremium for the entire plan determined in the same manner.The above explanation provides general information only and should not be relied upon to prepare any IRS or statetax forms. Discuss with your tax advisor the application of Public Law 96-601 to your business and/oremployees.DB 99 01 00 07 11AmGUARD Insurance CompanyP.O.
