  2. Panel Participants: • Karen Banning, University of Kansas • Dawna Groninger, University of Kansas • Jennifer Gehrt, Kansas State University • Linda Parker, Peoplesoft • Gary Singer, Windstar Technologies, Inc.

  3. University of Kansas Overview • One of the 7 Regent Institutions governed by State of Kansas • Comply with reporting of earnings for non-resident alien earnings – using State earnings codes, tax panel information reporting • Must maintain own time reporting, leave accrual and balance information using existing time reporting system • State of Kansas produces the 1042-S forms for KU employees • PeopleSoft V7.6 HRSA – No fixes applied

  4. NRA Issues • Student Administration & Foreign Addresses • When a student address is entered by SA as foreign – Job Earns Distribution populated automatically • Default foreign address to ‘Home Address’ and we must manually override to local address • 1042 Balances – Earns/Taxes • The appropriate effective dates must be entered in Tax Data panels in order for correct year to be updated. • Normally this is pay period begin date

  20. Kansas State University Overview • Fall 2000 Enrollment = 21,929 • Active Employees = 10,000+ • Non-Resident Aliens = 1009 • 1042 forms in 2000 = 504

  21. Kansas State University Overview • Use delivered PS HRMS 7.51 Education & Government NRA functionality with all relevant PS fixes applied • Use 1042 processing for payroll only--not scholarships and fellowships • Do not have PS Student Administration • Follow same basic rules and processes as the University of Kansas

  22. K-State’s Solutions to Problems with NRA Processes

  23. Employee Tax Data • We do not automate Employee Tax Data on Installation Table-- we always manually enter data in Tax Data

  24. Address in Personal Data • Train users to not insert foreign address in “Home Address” • Use local address in the “Home Address” • Use permanent foreign address in the “Mailing Address”, if desired

  25. Address in Personal Data • Will receive warning message when tabbing out of Country field on Federal Tax Data 3 panel -- that’s okay

  26. Visa/Permit Data • Tracking accurate Visa data is critical • Confusing panel for employee who has had more than one Visa type • Not effective-dated--Visa displays alphabetically, not employee’s current Visa • Tricky reporting • Fixed in PS 8?

  27. NRA Data Integrity • Added a Save Error Edit to State Tax Data requiring “Resident” checkbox to be ‘No’

  28. NRA Data Integrity • Employee Tax Audit Reports (SQRs) vs multiple on-line edits • Run audit reports beginning last day of pay period through day of final on-cycle pay calc

  29. Job Earnings Distribution Audits • Fed Tax Special Status = NRA without NRA Earnings code in JOB_EARNS_DIST record • NRA Earnings Code without Fed Tax Special Withholding Status = NRA • Multiple active Employment Records and Earning Codes in each JOB_EARNS_DIST record are not equal • Dept ID in JOB is not equal to Dept ID in JOB_EARNS_DIST

  30. Visa Audits • Employee with Visa Type = J2 and FICA Status = Exempt and enrolled in < 6 credit hours • Employee with Visa Type that requires Subject to FICA • Employee with Visa Type = J2 not eligible for Tax Treaty

  31. Other NRA Audits • Fed Tax Data--NRA requires additional withholding = $15.30 • NRA with Citizenship Status = ‘Alien Permanent’ is Subject to FICA

  32. Look out!! • Watch for custom SQRs that update JOB in batch--must also update the JOB_EARNS_DIST record at same time

  33. FICA/SUT Audit Report • J1/F1 Visas should always be exempt from FICA and SUT (unless Substantial Presence Test is met) • When FICA Exempt, SUT must be Exempt • When FICA Subject, SUT must be Nonexempt

  34. Tax Treaty Table • PeopleSoft re-delivers tax treaty table with each major release and with each application update • Interim changes must be tracked and applied in your system

  35. Tax Treaty Information • Tax Treaty and NRA information available on our web site: http://www.ksu.edu/hr/infomgmt/treatysum.htm • IRS Tax Treaty Information is simplified to include Income Codes 18 and 19, only

  36. Substantial Presence Test • We use manual worksheet to capture SPT calculations • Enter data from worksheet in PS SPT panel so data is readily available

  37. Substantial Presence Test • Start Date = Arrival Date in USA • Expiration Date = On-campus Work Permit Expires

  38. Substantial Presence Test • PS 7.51 needs Arrival Date and Visa Issue Date on SPT panel--possibly there in PS 8

  39. PeopleSoft/Windstar Partnership: Background • Partnership formed in December 1999 • Objective: To complement PeopleSoft’s non-resident alien taxation processing capabilities with the case-by-case tax treaty analysis capabilities in Windstar’s Tax Navigator • Windstar is developing a two-way interface between PeopleSoft Payroll and Windstar Tax Navigator
