The company looking to hire me wants copies of my last paycheck.  What do they want that for?

They want to verify your last place of employment and how much you made there.  It's probably easier for them than getting someone to run a background check.  It's also more reliable than a reference, sometimes, if they just want the numbers.

My Employer provides it

It really depends on your company's policy.  I asked a similar question to HR after my company was taken over.  She said the old company wouldn't do anything, but the new one might pursue.  The company might take your last paycheck to offset the dollar amount they have "lost."

Well first i have to say ur manager is taking advatage of you. If you work at big company like wall mart or walgreens or CVS its a good thing. First, they have to pay you for that day b/c you worked. First, write a letter detailing the situation and then make four copies and sign on all four of them. first. give on copy to your manager and say that "if i am paid, one letter will go to his boss or (district manager) and other to employee relations. and lastu keep it for our record. \n\nLOOK bro what ever they  say u were schduled on that day so u came to work, theres nothing they can do \nDON't forget--- check if that store gives you overtime pay for working holiday most likely they do \n  i was in a similar situation !!!!\n\n Please respond to me and tell me what happen ok \n\n fsi_million@yahoo.con

Say it exactly as you just did.\nIt's not in the original scope of the job and to either do it right the way the first time or you'll be having a chat with the person who hired you to redefine both your responsibilities and your pay scale.\n\nAll they've got to do is their job.  If they can't hack it, I think the owner has a right to know it.

Contact the DOL (Department of Labor)at www.dol.gov.\n\nAn employer can not take out garnishments or overpayments from your pay without written consent from you.

No matter where you work, you are supposed to be issued a pay stub. Regardless of the payments being direct deposit, or payed to you via check, the record of as far as how many hours you worked, how much taxes you've paid year to date, you have a right to that info. It's ok for your boss to keep the originals, but you are still entitled to a copy. That helps you prevent any mistakes regarding your W2's that your receive at the end of the year. If your employer is not in compliance, you can actually report him to the state.

Contact your employer. By law they have to give you one even if they sent it out by Jan31. If they do not give you a copy call the IRS 1 800 829 1040. You have to give your employer a chance to give you a copy first.

That would show on a $50 background check.  Some businesses do them, some don't.  If they don't you might get away with it, but it would be out there.  \n\nIf they ever decided they didn't want you, they could back check things and have an immediate reason to fire you with cause.  I have seen that happen twice.

Probably not, unless they can't find you.  You could always say you gave notice.  In my experience big companies don't always keep the best records.  \n\nGood luck, that will teach you to give notice.

You need to contact your payroll department and ask them to copy duplicates for you.

You have the right to a copy of anything you signed (as a condition of employment). You have a right to view your personnel file(Take an inventory of everything in it). It's supposed to be in your persnnell file.

your employer can supply that info, but what you may have to pay in at the end of the year may outway the 5 or 10 bucks a week extra that will show up on your check.

Not sure but they'll probably cut you a pretty fat check going back to when you first filed your claim but be aware SS Admin is famous for coming back down the road saying they overpaid and may want some back so set aside a chunk of the $$$ just in case

This is all reasonable for your perspective employer to ask.  Be honest and intelligent with your answers. Saying that you need the money might be true, but the hiring person wants to know why this job and company in particular. SELL YOURSELF! Don't expect the job to be handed to you.

You should be able to contact the Human Resources office of your old employer, assumint they are still in business.  Considering that it was your plan, you are entitled to the information within.
