This week I received a call from client with 2021 PR issue. Prior to closing PR the year, he issued six supplemental checks for S-Corp shareholder health insurance premiums. He then closed the year and ran first 2022 PR. He then discovered that using a regular earnings code AND a pretax insurance deduction code did not produce the desired results for w-2's. I said he "should" be able to reverse the six checks and reissue using a new earnings code for insurance premiums and the FB deduction code.. He declined to be a pioneer so we restored the 2021 back up, reversed the checks, corrected the six checks, ran the YE reports, closed the year and regenerated the first PR.
My bigger question is what is the best way to do this? Could we have reversed and reissued the health insurance checks using a 12/31/21 date while the PR period is set for Q1, 2022? OR would this still leave the YTD numbers mucked up.
