RRB sickness benefits. Sickpay is a continuation of part or all of your wages wh~leyou are unable to work. Sickpay
is generally subject to all regular payroll deductions. You must report your sick pay on your claim form; fallure to
do so may result in an overpayment of RRB sickness benefits that you will have to repay.
Supplemental sickness benefits are different from s~ckpay. Supplemental sickness benefits are payments made by
your employer to supplement your RRB benefits. Supplemental sickness benefits are not subject to Tier II tax.
Supplemental benefits are paid under plans submitted by employers and approved by the RRB. You should not
report supplemental sickness benefits on your claim. If you do not know whether payments you are receiving are
supplemental under an RRB-approved plan, contact the RRB office identified above for assistance.
