Federal Income Tax Deduction
The federal income tax (F.I.T.) deduction is equal to the employee’s annual federal income tax as calculated by DPS.
How DPS Calculates Tax
To calculate an employee's Alabama state tax, DPS does the following:
- Multiplies the employee's gross pay per pay period by the number of pay periods in a year to determine annualized gross wages.
- Subtracts the employee's standard deduction, allowance, annualized F.I.T., 401(k) and 125/Cafeteria plan contributions from the employee's annualized gross wages to determine taxable income.
- Calculates the annual income tax using Tax Calculation Method 1.
- Divides the annual income tax by the number of pay periods in a year to determine the amount to be withheld for the pay period.
