You can now designate projects in Wrapbook as Georgia Tax Credit projects, ensuring loan out payments are eligible for tax credits on projects shooting in Georgia. 

Any project created with a location in Georgia will now see an additional prompt asking Is this a Georgia Tax Credit project? By selecting Yes, Wrapbook will automatically collect Georgia Withholding IDs and withhold the appropriate Georgia Income Taxes for services performed in Georgia by loan outs.

Company Admins can now easily invite project coordinators to multiple projects at a time. 

From Company Settings > Administrators select New Administrator. You can then add the coordinator's email address and role, and add them to any relevant projects.

For New York payroll: going forward, you will see the state’s existing Interest Assessment Surcharge (IAS) broken out separately from State Unemployment on invoices. The amount of the surcharge has not changed; Wrapbook is merely breaking it out as a separate line item on invoices for clarity.

The current New York State Unemployment rate is 9.9%, and New York’s current IAS rate is 0.23%. Both cap at the state’s maximum wage base per employee annually.

As a reminder, the state surcharge was put in place to pay the interest for New York’s Federal loan, which covered unemployment claims partially resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. For full details, please refer to the original announcement from the New York Department of Labor.

Company Admins can now enter union signatory information such as signatory name, number, and date at the Company level, making the information available to all your projects. This means existing signatory info can easily be pulled into a new or ongoing project, with a simple dropdown selection. 

With this change, all existing union signatory information from previous projects will also automatically populate your Company-level list, so there is nothing to do on your end – except save the time and hassle of looking up the information each time you create a new union project.

You now have the ability to add a Preferred Name to your Wrapbook profile. While your Legal First and Last Names are still required for tax and reporting purposes, companies will see Preferred Name reflected in the project making it easier for them to engage with you using the correct name. 

Note: Wrapbook will also use your Preferred Name in all email communications and non-legal or tax-related instances throughout the app. 

To update your profile, go to Settings > Account Settings.
