This alert generates when the incoming W-2c only corrected Medicare wages or tips,
and the correction is less than the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA) wages
or tips. The Detailed Earnings Query Response (DEQR) will reflect the W-2c posting
and will electronically offset.
Cause:
Employer possibly entered the Medicare wages or tips incorrectly on the W-2c.
Action:
Perform an analysis of the available evidence and obtain additional evidence as necessary
to determine the correct earnings. Prepare an internal adjustment to make the earnings
for the Employer Identification Number (EIN)/Year correct.
