If an agency deducts the amount of employment tax withholding from the gross loan repayment, is the amount of the employment tax withholding and the net loan repayment includible in the employee's gross income and in wages for Federal employment tax purposes?

Yes. However, the amount of income tax withheld is credited against the employee's income tax liability for the year.

This answer was provided by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). For further guidance/clarification on this issue, agency representatives may contact IRS (Federal, State and Local Governments) at (202) 283-9665.
