Forms 941 and W-2 - Reporting
Answer:
The actual value of fringe benefits provided during a calendar year must be determined by January 31 of the following year. You must report the actual value on Forms 941 (or Form 944) and W-2. If you choose, you can use a separate Form W-2 for fringe benefits and any other benefit information.
Include the value of the fringe benefit in box 1 of Form W-2. Also include it in boxes 3 and 5, if applicable.
You may show the total value of the fringe benefits provided in the calendar year or other period in box 14 of Form W-2. However, if you provided your employee with the use of a highway motor vehicle and included 100% of its annual lease value in the employee's income, you must also report it separately in box 14 or provide it in a separate statement to the employee so that the employee can compute the value of any business use of the vehicle.
