I ran my first payroll for 2 employees. Both are claiming zero, however no federal tax was withheld from either person, only Social Security and Medicare. Did I set something up incorrectly?
Just a quick question. When I started using square payroll, I noticed that it didn't specify that a certain tax was being taken out. I was told to look at the employee's paystub. Have you tried that? The paystubs show everything.
I did, no federal tax is listed.
Are you sure that you don't have them listed as a 1099 employee?
They are both employees, no contractors.
The only thing that I can see that may have caused an issue was I paid both as "additional pay" because they are commission based. I paid nothing on an hourly or salary rate.
Hello @heavenlycolors! Even if you ran it as "additional pay", all taxes would be withheld according to the employees withholding info.
In this case I recommend reaching out to our Payroll Support Team so they can take a closer look at your account and make sure everything is in order.
