The FICA Deferral will not show on any existing tax reports. It is not a realized tax, it is a deferred tax. Until the government makes it clear what employers are supposed to do with the deferred tax, the best we can do is track it.

As the government provides more information, we will be working hard to make sure you have all the software tools you need to stay compliant.
