Excess CPF Contributions Report - Payroll Web Platform

Overview

The excess CPF contributions report lists any employees who have had voluntary employer CPF or MediSave contributions paid during the selected basis period. The report is purely for information purposes only and indicates which employees should have an IR8S form produced at the end of the basis period. The electronic lodgement and reporting to the IRAS is covered under the IRAS Lodgement report.

    Helpful Hint

    When you run the report, it includes the following columns:

    • Employee Identity number.
    • Employee name.
    • Employing entity
    • Month.
    • Ordinary wages.
    • Employer/employee CPF contributions for ordinary wages.
    • Additional wages.
    • Employer/employee CPF contributions for additional wages.
    • Total CPF contribution for employer/employee.
    • Excess/voluntary contribution - Employer CPF & MediSave.

    The total CPF contribution value is the rounded value which aligns to the CPF lodgement files. We round the employer amount up to the nearest $ and the employee amount has the cents removed.

    While the excess CPF report shows the CPF contribution split between ordinary wage, for example, and additional wage, for example, quarterly bonus. This differs to the pay run as in that instance as well as the CPF files lodged to the CPFB, at it only shows the total CPF contribution.
