Yes, a W-2 employee that is a tractor trailer driver can claim the no-tax on overtime deduction.  A independent over-the-road driver can't.

 

You stated: 

"Overtime for UPS Feeder drivers (Tractor Trailer) may qualify for the No Tax on Overtime deduction only if it meets the criteria for 'qualified overtime compensation."

  • This is correct. The driver is a W-2 employee that earns overtime over 40Hours required by the Fair Labor Standards Act 

"However, state-mandated overtime or amounts above time-and-a-half pay required by FLSA do not qualify."

  • Non qualified overtime includes
    • State-mandated daily overtime,
    • Contractual premiums,
    • Bonuses, and
    • Pay for exempt employees.
  • There also may be collective bargaining, contractual holidays, and overtime that are not covered.
