 wow - thanks for all the info. a couple more for the payroll newbie:

1. what are the forms that need to get filed with the feds? and how
often are they filed? if the filing times/dates vary, what determines
the schedules?

2. what are the forms that need to get filed with the states (CA), and
how often are they filed? if the filing times/dates vary, what
determines the schedules?


thanks again.

 1. If you do not have the current Publication 15 (Circular E) you need
to download it from www.irs.gov. It has this information.

2. You will need to contact the state's office, not sure of their
title. In Texas the Texas Workforce Commission handles anything
related to employee payroll, i.e. unemployment benefits, pay day
issues, and collection of the state unemployment taxes.

thank you, will do. since this is the first time i'll be cutting a
check, i'm wondering if someone would be kind enough to check my
numbers? the employee is very simple -

first paycheck for this employee
single with 1 allowance.
hourly wage of 11 / hr.
total hours are 63.5
State is CA

these are the numbers i get:

Gross - 698.5
Fed withholding - 56
Social Sec Employee - 43.31
Medicare Employee - 10.13
CA - withholding - 5.69
CA - disability - 5.59

Net amount 577.78

do these numbers look right? i'm using Quickbooks payroll service, btw.

Is this a weekly or bi weekly check?

If it is a bi-weekly check you match PaycheckCity.com.

If it is a weekly check, that website gives me 82.05 for federal and 20.51
for CA state withholdings. Otherwise the numbers match when using a weekly
rate. Also, you should have an OT premium if weekly.

hi,

this is bi-weekly. and i did run it against paycheckcity.com, and it
did seem to match, which gives me peace of mind.

paycheckcity has an option to "Round Federal Withholding", whereas
Quickbooks seems to just round automatically. is this of consequence?
