What taxes are taken out when I work?

In addition to state and federal taxes, the FICA tax will be deducted from gross earnings, which is your pay before any type of tax is deducted. When a student is taking classes and working they are exempt from paying the FICA tax. Students working a summer job at Aspen Grove will not be enrolled in school and will have the FICA tax along with federal and state taxes automatically deducted from their pay, unless they are doing an internship.

What should I do if my bank account doesn't have the amount I think I should get paid?

If your bank account does not have the amount you think it should, you can view your paycheck at hrms.byu.edu and by following the steps under the question "Where should I look to see how much my paycheck is?" above. From here you will be able to see how much you earned, the taxes that were taken out of your paycheck, and the amount that was put into your bank account. If the amount in your account does not match your paycheck, contact your bank. Your money may have been put into a savings account, not checking. You are welcome to contact Julia Qiao at Aspen Grove for assistance.
