Adjusting Paycheck Bookkeeping Question

Adjusting Paycheck

Adjusting Paycheck

How do you adjust a paycheck amount for payroll reconciling purposes only?

In my books the paycheck issued has an amount but my client gave the employee a different amount.

I've already reported the paycheck amount to the IRS so I don't want to change it but I cannot reconcile since both amounts are different?

Paycheck Withholding

Paycheck Withholding

Paycheck Withholding

We formed a small family partnership to handle our parent's finances and care. In the first year we issued only 2 payroll checks and withheld all of the payroll taxes.

In December of the next year they issued only 1 payroll check but did not withhold any of the payroll taxes. How do I handle the W-2 form and the quarterly reports for both the federal government and the state of California.

The previous three quarters I filed the necessary payroll reports with the "No Payroll" boxes checked but I'm not sure what to do now.

Thank you for any help you can offer.

"Payroll" for a C-corp

by sarah
(Utah, USA)

I have never done bookkeeping for a C-corp and I want to make sure I am paying a salary correctly. What is the best way to pay the only employee/CEO? There are a few shareholders (and he is one of them) but he doesn't want to take this money as a dividend. It should be his salary for the work he does. Can he be an independent contractor, or is that not legal or ethical?
thanks

Verify a payroll client

We recently were involved in a payroll scam. We print the actual checks on a special printer with our clients routing number, account number and business name. This new client gave us someone elses bank number and they were getting money out of their account. We can't verify their banking information and we can't verify their FEIN number so how do we check to make sure who we hire on as a client is not going to scam us and that they are who they say they are?
