If you paid for the item then it is yours.  You can actually write it off of your income taxes as an "Unreimbursed Employment Expense."  Although, your employer and his lawyer must have a good reason to think it is not yours.  Otherwise, they wouldn't even bother with court.

You can do it either way. You can print it off the IRS web site or your employer can get you a new one. Don't stress if you are a Little late in turning it in. The have to withhold at the highest tax rate until you fill out the  4-w telling them otherwise

Payroll clerks, also called payroll technicians, screen timecards for calculating, coding, or other errors. They compute pay by subtracting allotments, including Federal and State taxes and contributions to retirement, insurance, and savings plans, from gross earnings. Increasingly, computers are performing these calculations and alerting payroll clerks to problems or errors in the data. In small organizations or for new employees whose records are not yet entered into a computer system, clerks may perform the necessary calculations manually. In some small offices, clerks or other employees in the accounting department process payroll.\n\nPayroll clerks record changes in employees’ addresses; close out files when workers retire, resign, or transfer; and advise employees on income tax withholding and other mandatory deductions. They also issue and record adjustments to workers’ pay because of previous errors or retroactive increases. Payroll clerks need to follow changes in tax and deduction laws, so they are aware of the most recent revisions. Finally, they prepare and mail earnings and tax-withholding statements for employees’ use in preparing income tax returns.\n\nIn small offices, payroll and timekeeping duties are likely to be included in the duties of a general office clerk, a secretary, or an accounting clerk. However, large organizations employ specialized payroll and timekeeping clerks to perform these functions. In offices that have automated timekeeping systems, payroll clerks perform more analysis of the data, examine trends, and work with computer systems. They also spend more time answering employees’ questions and processing unique data.\n\nYou can read more here:\n\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos149.htm

No.  Its illegal.  Even if you need latex gloves to work there, and you have to pay for it, your boss cannot even take it out of your pay.  He has to have you sign a paper saying that you will pay for it, and then, ask for it when you get your pay check.  This is because of tax reasons and other moral reasons.  And once the check is in your pocket, he cannot take it unless you actually made the mistake.  And even if you made the mistake, he still cant take your money.  He has to fire you.  Because he earns profit, and not a wage.  You earn a wage.  And he has to pay for everything that goes wrong.  But if nothing goes wrong, then he can continue keeping his profit without anybody touching it right?  See?  It works both ways.  And if he cant take it anymore, he has to fire someone.  What hes doing is strictly illegal.

Check with a lawyer for Colorado-specific laws, but no, it should not be legal. Your paycheck is money you earned for things you ALREADY did, since it's issued after every two weeks (or however long, point being, its after the hours you worked). Therefore, they have no right to not pay you for what you already did.

Have you contacted the company?  That would be the first and most obvious step.  You may be mistaken about being owed money or the company may not be legally obligated to pay it to you at this point in time.

You need to call the labor relation board in your state and see if that is legal. It doesn't sound like it but they would know the answers. You can do it without stating what company you work for.

Why don't you ask your local payroll office.  There should be a number on your pay slip.

Yes, it is legal for a company to determine how people get paid.  Companies are allowed to set their own policies and most companies are switching to direct deposit.  It will only be a matter of time before all the but smallest companies pay this way.  So, you probably better open an account and adjust to the changes of society.\n\nDirect deposit is a great thing!  The money is always there in your account when it is supposed to be.  I think once you see how it works, you will love it.

Normally people get paid on the normal pay date - doing other wise causes all kinds of administrative headaches. So I would wait until the normal payroll run and put them on then.\n\nAlso, you need to issue a P45.

Most companies don't pay their employees "current". All that means is that the pay period cuts off one week before the checks are cut and paid to the employees. That gives the Payroll department time to process the payroll. \n\nFor instance, If you were hired on the first of a month and the first payday was the fifteenth, the timecard showing your hours worked would probably be due the 7th of the month. You would turn in a timesheet reflecting one week of hours worked. By the time you get paid on the fifteenth you will have worked two weeks, but the second week goes into the next pay period, and so on. \n\nWhen you leave employment your final check will reflect all hours worked, so it will work out in the end, I promise!

It's not illegal to pay "late" when the payday is on a weekend or holiday.  As long as the payment is done the first business day after the weekend or holiday, the company is legally doing what is expected.\n\nI believe what happens is, companies are not expected to conduct business during weekends and holidays (except for retail and food establishments).  Imagine, if you will, if you don't have direct deposit.  Would you expect a paycheck on a weekend of holiday?  No, because the banks are closed for major processing and the office admin isn't available for disbursement of checks.  In order to treat all employees fairly, if non-direct deposit employees can't get paid, then no one should be paid on that day.  Employees shouldn't be ranked on how they get paid, even if you consider that computers can automatically do all of it.

Ok my guess is that this "payroll company" is a temporary agency such as Seek, Manpower , or one of the other ones.  These companys absolutly use employees!  The sad thing is that Corporations do buisness with these type of companys.  You have no protection in your job, you generally get lesser benefits, and you really don't have much say in the comapny you work for.  \n  My advice is that you get out of there ASAP!  The client may not even be able to hire you on because of agreements with the staffing company... did you know that?  THey are some shady characters and all they want is the pay that you make for them.  I bet they get paid 2 dollars an hour for every hour that you have ever worked!.  Over three years how much do you think they have made off your hard labor?  \n  Look for another job .. a real job with real benefits and real oppertunity for advancment.  Right now your nothing more than a 2nd class employee who will never be given anything.  Don't let these large gutless companys take advantage of you any longer.

If you were penalized for taking a CD out early, yes.  You can deduct that penalty on your 1040.

This comes under contract and you are a contractor to them for a work. The person who is paying you the amount will have to deduct TDS on the amount paid to you and you will have to pay tax to Income tax department. You can file the same in form Saral 2D along with your other income if any.
