Are tips subject to employment taxes? Yes. However, tips paid in cash and received by an employee are exempt from FICA, FUTA and income tax withholding if the aggregate amount of tips received during any calendar month is less than $20. Generally, an employee is required to report tips to his or her employer by the 10th day of the month following the month in which the tips were received. The employer must then report and withhold FICA and income taxes on tips that are reported by the employee from non-tip wages paid to the employee. To the extent the employee has failed to report required amounts, or if the amount required to be withheld exceeds the employee's other wages or funds, withholding is not required. .
