This screen is used to:
- view US Tax Miscellaneous Parameters by the states that are applicable for IPRLU
IDGV#

- IDGV overridden amounts take precedence over the IPUTR overridden amounts
IPRLU/IPRULS #
- Each employee must be set up with the applicable Tax Methods

Georgia State Tax Calculation#
On

13-000-0000-SIT-000 | Georgia State Tax |
13-000-0000-SIT-000 | Georgia State Unemployment Tax |

GA – IPRLU Set Up#
The Miscellaneous Tax Parameters must be set up for the following Miscellaneous Identifiers
- If these identifiers do not exist, UPCALC will generate the default entries for the identifiers.
- When generating the default identifier for FILINGSTATUS, the IPRLU State Filing Status will be used if this exists, otherwise the Federal Filing Status will be used.
- If State / Federal Filing Status = ‘01’ – Single , then FILINGSTATUS = ‘A’
- If State / Federal Filing Status = ‘02’ – Married , then FILINGSTATUS = ‘C’
- If State / Federal Filing Status = ‘03’ – Head of Household, then FILINGSTATUS = ‘E’
- If State / Federal Filing Status = ‘04’ – Married – File Separate, then FILINGSTATUS = ‘D’
- If State / Federal Filing Status = ‘05’ – Married-File Jointly, then FILINGSTATUS = ‘C’
- If State / Federal Filing Status = ‘06’ – Married-1 Spouse work, then FILINGSTATUS = ‘C’
- If State / Federal Filing Status = ‘07’ – Married-2 Spouse work, then FILINGSTATUS = ‘B’

There are two options to set up the ER SUTA rate by state:
- IPUTR
- Enter the SUTA ER rate that is given by the government on the Override Tax Rate field.
- This rate is applicable for the entire company within the State of Georgia.
- IDGV
- If there is a specific rate given by the government for a different State Registration #, then enter the rate on IDGV by ‘Reg Type’; this overrides the IPUTR rate.
