Hi, I have 2 issues with Deductions reducing the amount of Gross reported in the STP reporting.
1. A Salary Sacrifice Deduction - I get that this is reducing the Gross for the purpose of calculating tax for that particular employee - is it correct that it reduces the Gross on the STP reporting? - and this then creates a difference between the STP reported Gross and the actual Gross Wages that I report on my PAYGW Activity Statement - is it ok for these to be reported different?
2. An after tax deduction (for rent, but could be for anything) - this is also reducing the amount reported in the Gross of the STP reporting - I have the deduction as "Not Reportable" for the ATO Reporting Category - again, this is making the STP reporting, and my figure that I would report as Gross on my IPAYGW Activity Statement different.
Greatly appreciated if you could please advise how I can correct this?
Thanks
J
