When calculating local municipal income tax, which income tax and withholding boxes on the Federal W-2 Form does R.I.T.A. use?
The Local Wages, Tips, etc. box on your W-2 statement (usually box 18) is used in determining taxable income for R.I.T.A. This is also the highest income figure reported on the W-2. The Local Income Tax box (usually box 19) reports the amount of tax that was withheld for the locality. The Locality Name box (usually box 20) indicates the city for which the tax has been withheld. ***Since W-2 forms vary between employers, the box numbers mentioned may not correspond to your W-2, so check your W-2 carefully.
