the amount of wages paid to individual employees during this quarter which, when considered with other
wages paid to the employees by you during the calendar quarter, regardless of the state to which the wages
were reported, is in excess of $8,000. Your figure on line B-2 may equal but not exceed line B-1. Example:
st
st
An individual is employed from January 1
through December 31
, and is paid $2800 in each of the four
calendar quarters, for a total of $11,200. For the first and second quarters, all wages are taxable and no
excess should be deducted. However, in the third quarter $400 must be entered as excess wages on line 2 of
the third quarter report. In the fourth quarter, the entire earnings of $2800 must be entered on line 2 as
excess wages.
Line B-3
Line B-3
Line B-3: This figure will be computed for you, and should be equal to the amount on line B-1 minus line

B-2.
Line B-4
Line B-4
Line B-4: This amount is also computed, and is the total taxable wages shown on line B-3 multiplied by
Line B-4
Line B-4
your tax rate (as entered in the tax rate field).
Line B-5: If you have received a Notice of Overpayment (form VEC-AC-7) from the Commission, you
Line B-5
Line B-5
Line B-5
Line B-5
may enter the overpayment amount, or a portion thereof, to offset the tax, interest and/or penalty on lines
B-4, 6, or 7. If you discover an error for which an overpayment notice has not been issued, do not deduct
this amount on the report being filed. An explanation for this overpayment must be sent to the VEC
Auditing Unit with details of the error, and the quarter to which it applies. An overpayment notice will then
be issued and you may then apply this amount to offset any obligation to the next calendar quarter.
Line B-6: If the tax due is paid after the due date, interest is charged at the rate of 1½ percent per month
Line B-6

(18% annual rate). Any part of the month is considered as a full month for the purpose of computing
interest. Enter this amount on line B-6.
Line B-7
Line B-7
Line B-7: A $30 penalty must be added for each report filed after the final due date. This penalty also

Line B-7
applies to state and political subdivision employers. A penalty will not be assessed on reports for quarters in
which no wages were paid. Newly covered employers must file all quarterly tax reports by the due date of
the quarter in which an employer account number was assigned to avoid the $30 penalty on each report.
Interest will accrue even if a penalty is not due. Enter this amount on line B-7.

Line B-8: After all prior quarter payments and reports have been processed, any amount remaining should
