I am currently using the 30-day free trial of the Zpay software. However, I am having a bit difficulty in the tax tabs. The federal tax is not populating in the overall deductions. In addition, I have tried submiting the transaction several times to see if the federal tax deductions would show but was unsuccessful. Overall, how do you figure out the federal tax for an employee working in Arkansas?

Thanks!

Federal tax deductions are the same no matter what state you are in.

If you have the pay period set correctly for your employees and the martial status as well as the number of exemptions, the Federal taxes will come out to the penny when compared to the Federal Exact Calculation method.

See this FAQ as with the tax cut by the tax stimulus package, many are in a tax bracket where they pay little or no Federal taxes:

And of course I am assuming that you have not changed any of the information in the Federal tax tables installed by PayWindow.
