In Aug 2016, the university I work at changed my working hours from 20 to 40 per week. I was making 750$/2 weeks before taxes and it was being changed to $1500/2 weeks.
The first check after the change was for 2250(I got 1,849.97) in error and it should have been 1500. They dint notice it and I dint notice it until I was asked to return it. Now they are asking to return the whole $750 where as I only received extra $561.29.
Here is what they sent me in the email.
| Description | Amount Paid | AMOUNT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PAID | AMOUNT OVERPAID |
|---|---|---|---|
| TOTAL GROSS PAY | 2,250.00 | 1,500.00 | 750.00 |
| Federal Tax | 339.28 | 170.82 | 168.46 |
| State Tax | 60.75 | 40.50 | 20.25 |
| TOTAL DEDUCTIONS | 400.03 | 211.32 | 188.71 |
| NET PAY | 1,849.97 | 1,288.68 | 561.29 |
| *Amount due in 2017 | 750.00 |
*Overpayments that cross calendar years are owed as net amount plus federal and state tax withholdings.
To me, it doesnt make sense that they paid me $561.29 and are asking back for $750. Are they right in asking $750 back instead of what I actually got paid?
If I am required to pay them $750, then how will I get $188.71 back which they paid as taxes for me?
