Holiday gifts feel generous—but for payroll they’re often taxable. In this episode of Payroll Brass Tax, Mike Mahoney (shareholder, Morristown/New York) and Stephen Kenney (associate, Dallas) break down when gifts, gift cards, and raffle prizes count as wages, and how the de minimis fringe benefit rules really work. The speakers also discuss the mechanics of valuation, timing, withholding, and gross-ups to help employers avoid audit surprises and keep the season compliant.
