FAMLI (Family and Medical Leave Insurance):

  • This falls under the category of Payroll Taxes or Employment Taxes, as contributions to FAMLI programs are typically deducted from employee wages and may include employer contributions. These programs provide paid leave benefits for qualified family or medical leave events.
  • Example: Colorado’s FAMLI program.

As it relates to an item on a W-2, CWG could stand for Combined Wage Group or Combined Wage Claim:

Combined Wage Group (CWG):

  • Refers to wages that are reported for employees who work in multiple states, where income is allocated across those states for tax purposes. Employers manage state-specific withholding and reporting.

Combined Wage Claim (CWG):

  • A term often related to unemployment insurance. If an employee works in multiple states, a combined wage claim allows those earnings to be considered together for unemployment benefits. While not directly listed on a W-2, this may be part of employer-provided documentation for unemployment reporting.
