I recently accepted a new RN position at another organization and on Monday, I'm going to be giving my notice that I will be leaving the current company I am with.
I currently carry about 160 hours of PTO. Since I will no longer be with this organization due to my upcoming resignation, I see that for employees that are resigning, via their HR department, "the PTO balance will be paid out within two pay period after termination has been processed." The company's HR later says "PTO pay-outs are taxed at the higher supplemental tax rate as required by law"
I know I will already be hit hard with the taxes, however, is there any adjustments, or anything I could do, to not feel as if I've lost so much of the compensation for it once I resign?
Anybody have any prior experiences with this? Can I make any exemptions or adjustments prior to resigning or just accept the higher tax rate? Thank you.
