Payroll tax cut truth time: You might not get a ‘holiday’

Who is eligible for the payroll tax holiday? The only requirement specified in the executive memo is that you earn no more than $4,000 every two weeks under the latest IRS guidelines. People who earn more than that will not be able to participate in the payroll tax holiday. It’s unclear how Trump’s payroll tax deferment would affect self-employed workers and contractors who typically pay their Social Security taxes with their income taxes. 

Aina’s signing follows the capture of midfielder Harrison Reed, goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, right back Kenny Tete and midfielder Mario Lemina and left back Antonee Robinson while winger Anthony Knockaert’s loan move was made permanent.

“Overall, it is likely that many employers will judge this deferral to be either too complex or impose too much potential liability on their end to be worth taking advantage of, mitigating much of the limited benefit of the deferral,” Watson said.

“Implementation of this Treasury and IRS guidance will result in significant, material consequences for workers starting early next year — particularly lower and middle-income earners — whose employers elect to temporarily defer the employee portion of those payroll taxes,” the senators said in the letter.

Senate Democrats appear to have found a way to possibly overturn Trump’s tax holiday. A letter sent on Sept. 2 to the Government Accountability Office (GAO) from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat from New York, and Sen. Ron Wyden, a Democrat from Oregon, requests the office to determine if the guidance provided for the payroll tax holiday could be deemed a “rule.” Under the Congressional Review Act, Congress can disapprove a rule that’s already in effect, and if successful in this case, it could end the payroll tax holiday.

The payroll tax deferment was one of the four executive actions Trump signed on Aug. 8, with the other three involving what the administration referred to as enhanced unemployment benefits, an eviction moratorium and a continued deferral on student loan payments. The actions came as Democrats and Republicans continued to fall short of an agreement on the terms of a new stimulus package, which might include a second round of stimulus checks. That deadlock goes on, with a “skinny” relief bill floated by Republicans failing to pass the Senate on Friday. 

Trump’s executive memo on Aug. 8 involved deferring, for workers making less than $100,000 a year, the 6.2% Social Security tax taken out of paychecks. The deferment would last from Sept. 1 to Dec. 31 and taxes would have to be paid back over the course of the first four months of 2021. House Republicans introduced a bill Friday to forgive the deferred taxes, according to a report from The Hill. Trump said in multiple campaign speeches that he would forgive the taxes if he gets reelected, and there are discussions at the White House of him signing another executive action that the administration says would make the deferment more effective, as reported by The Washington Post on Wednesday.
