I get paid biweekly (924.25) and work 40 hrs a week. I recently got paid for 80 hrs of normal work and 80 hrs of overtime (2075.82). It was someone's mistake working on the payroll. Once they realized their mistake, I was paid 0.00 for the next paycheck and 498.60 for the next. A total of 2574.42 for the 3 paychecks.
I would normally make 2772.75 for 3 paychecks. So this is a difference of 198.33 due to having more taxes taken out of the large amount I was accidentally paid. I've been trying to figure out what to do about it. I would like to be paid the 198.33 but the lady I talked to said the taxes have been paid and there's nothing she can do.
I've been trying to get this resolved. The people managing my paycheck accused me of intentionally doing this and that I tried to hide the mistake. I notified my boss the day I was paid and we couldn't get in touch with the payroll people for a week. So I don't know if there's nothing that can be done or if they just don't want to do anything.
Should I just let this go? Or do I file it when I do my taxes?
