Check your pay stubs!

[u/Practicalbeaver]

I feel like this should go without saying, but it always amazes me how many people I see on here who run into problems because they never check their pay stubs. I’m getting my annual bonus paid out soon and I realized the amount listed on my pay stub was wrong. The CFO had calculated the bonuses incorrectly for anyone who got a mid year raise last year.

I would’ve been shorted $500 if I hadn’t double checked the math.

Tax pro here. Same advice. The number of people who are not aware that they have no federal income tax being withheld is staggering.

I can understand maybe not knowing if it is the correct amount, but that $0.00 is hard to miss.
