Section 97B.14A - Wage reporting1. For purposes of this section, unless the context otherwise requires: a."Change in the schedule of wage payments" means the formal or informal deferral of wages earned in one calendar year to a later calendar year or the acceleration of the wages payable under a contract of employment to the prior calendar year by changing the period over which the contractual compensation is paid, by shortening the period of employment over which contract wages are to be paid, or similar arrangements altering the timing of wage payments.b."Distortion of the normal wage progression pattern" means an increase of ten percent or more between the covered wages reported for any two consecutive years.2. An employer shall report wages of employees covered by this chapter to the system in a manner and form as prescribed by the system. If the wages reported by an employer appear to be a distortion of the normal wage progression pattern for an employee, the system may request that the employer provide documentation explaining the reason for the distortion. If the distortion of the normal wage progression pattern results from covering compensation that is excluded from the definition of covered wages, or from a change in the schedule of wage payments for an individual, the system shall remove wages that should not be covered from its records, and shall, in cases involving increases caused by a change in the schedule of wage payments, reallocate covered wages to the calendar quarters in which the covered wages would have been reported but for the change in the schedule of wage payments.2000 Acts, ch 1077, §25; 2001 Acts, ch 68, §21, 24; 2003 Acts, ch 145, § 286; 2004 Acts, ch 1103, §14
