Are payroll deductions reportable compensation?

Amounts withheld from your salary or wages are reportable compensation. Examples include:

(2) Amounts withheld for federal income tax purposes; and
(3) Other authorized voluntary deductions, such as deferred compensation or IRC section 457 plan contributions.
