CO 08-031-201738 – Denver OPT
CO 08-005-204737 – Aurora OPT

VT 50-000-0000 – Vermont Catamount Healthcare
Assessment Tax
For Symmetry users, method ‘01’ will deduct the entire Head Tax amount without any proration
e.g. Colorado Denver OPT Head Tax is $5.75 per month, this method will take $5.75 when the employee has not been deducted for the month
- if user wants to prorate $5.75 by each period, then use Method ’06 – Calc, Prorate by Period’
Vertex Users only:
02 – Once Per Year
03 – Once Per Mth
04 – 1/Mth w Min Wage
05 – Once Per Period
- For Symmetry users, Head Tax method 02 to 05 will default to Method 01.
- Symmetry automatically calculates Head Tax for each local, there is no need to specify ‘Once per year’ or ‘Once per month’
Symmetry Users only:
06 – Calc, Prorate by Period
For Symmetry users, this method will prorate the Head Tax amount by pay period
e.g. Colorado Denver OPT Head Tax is $5.75 per month, this method will prorate $5.75 to each period for the month
For a weekly pay period, the tax is $1.33
For a bi-weekly pay period, the tax is $2.65
- if user does not want to prorate $5.75 by each period, then use Method ’01 – Calculate by Local’
99 - Do Not Calculate If uloc_head_tax_method = '99' then
Head Tax will not be calculated
