!!New Mexico State Tax Calculation
On [IPUTR], there is a list of applicable taxes to be calculated for State of New Mexico:
|35-000-0000-SIT-000|New Mexico State Tax
|35-000-0000-ER_SUTA-000|New Mexico State Unemployment Tax
|35-000-0000-WC-000|New Mexico Worker's Compensation
|35-000-0000-ER_EHT-000|New Mexico Worker's Compensation Assessment Fee - Employer
\\ \\
----
!NM – 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.\\
||Miscellaneous Identifiers||Description
|FILINGSTATUS|Mandatory\\'S'-single, 'M'-married, or 'MH'-married but w/h at higher single rate
|TOTALALLOWANCES|Optional\\Enter the total number of allowances
\\
On the [IPRLU State tab|IPRLU#StateTab] ‘WC Method’ may be set up with an override ‘Calc by US Taxation’ or ‘Both by IPWC and US Taxation’ in order to calculate the New Mexico Workers Compensation by Symmetry Taxation.\\ \\WC Method ‘Calc by IPWC Class’ will calculate WC using the rates defined in [IPWC], the WC tax identifier in [IPUTR] will not calculate if this method is selected.\\ \\If the [IPRLU] WC Method is not set up, then [IPPGU] Pay Category WC Method will be used.
\\ \\
----
!NM – ER SUTA Rate
ER SUTA may be bypassed on [IPUTR] with ‘Do not Calculate’ or [IPRLU] ‘SUI ER Method’ = ‘Do not Calculate’.
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 New Mexico.
#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.
\\ \\

!NM – IPPC / PC Usages
IPPC – Set up Pay Components by PC Usages
In order to calculate the following taxes, set up [IPPC] for these PC Usages:
||Usage||Description
|7006|Workers Comp Employee Tax
|7430|NM-WC Assessment Fee - Employer
\\ \\

!NM – Special Taxes
IPUTR – Worker’s Compensation
#New Mexico Worker's Compensation
#*Check the ‘Do Not Calculate’ toggle on [IPUTR] to bypass WC Calculation if desired.
#*[IPRLU] or [IPPGU] may specify WC Method = ‘Calc by US Taxation’ or ‘Both by IPWC and US taxation’ to calculate WC using Symmetry.
#*The New Mexico Workers Compensation tax is $2 per quarter fee paid by the employee.
#*Symmetry provides an option to prorate this Workers Compensation Tax by pay period, however the ‘Prorate Option’ will not be used due to rounding issues as follows:\\ \\e.g. In one year, there are four quarters in a year, $2 x 4 = $8 per year.
#**For BW payroll, there are 26 pays in one year, $8 / 26 = $0.31 per pay, therefore $0.31 should be taken for each pay period until the $2 quarterly maximum is reached.
#**However, $0.62 will be withheld when both Regular and Suppl wages are paid in one pay; for the quarter with 6 pays, $0.31 x 6 = $1.86, for the quarter with 7 pays, $0.31 x 7 = $2.17 with maximum of $2.00.
#**During the last pay of a quarter, if the ‘Prorate Option’ is set to False, then Symmetry will catch the remainder of the Workers Compensation tax for the quarter.
#**However, the last pay of a quarter for each employee varies depending on if the employee will be paid, therefore the ‘Prorate Option’ will not be used.
#**Workers Compensation will be calculated the first time the employee is paid in a quarter, this coincides with the Employer New Mexico Worker's Compensation Assessment Fee as below.
#New Mexico Worker's Compensation Assessment Fee
#*Check the ‘Do Not Calculate’ toggle on [IPUTR] to bypass WC Calculation if desired.
#*[IPRLU] or [IPPGU] may specify WC Method = ‘Calc by US Taxation’ to calculate WC.
#*This tax is computed as a dollar amount per employee and is considered Employer Head tax.

%%information Note:For New Mexico Workers Compensation, in order to override the employee WC portion and move to the employer WC portion, then this employee WC portion becomes taxable and subject to SIT and SUTA tax.\\ \\In this case, calculate WC via Usercalc instead of by Symmetry. In Usercalc, calculate the employee and employer WC portion and store in pay component before US Taxation Pay point. Then include this employee WC pay component into the Elements of Pre-State Earnings (Usage 6651) and Pre-SUI Employer Earnings (Usage 6752). This approach truly reflects the Employee WC portion in the Pre-Tax Earnings pay components and will carry through the system for the use of Self-Adjust method etc.%%
