Your Payroll Specialist needs to know 5 things about your bonus payroll:
How much is the bonus? Is that the net amount or the gross amount?
What should we deduct from this check? Should all deductions be included in this check, or should we deduct Social Security and Medicare taxes only?
What is the check date? Is this for 2019 or 2020?
Would you like live checks, manual checks, cash, or direct deposit?
· If you would like live checks, how would you like these checks delivered?
· If you would like direct deposit, would you like a paper copy of the stub to give to your employee?
Is this bonus a surprise?
· If so, we can prevent the payroll notification from informing the employee before you can distribute the bonus checks or tell the employees.
