Repay Employee Over Deducted Amount
Hi All,
A few weeks ago, we over deducted too much from an employee's paycheck for health and dental insurance. We now need to pay him back as he is being terminated. How do I do so without messing things ups?!
Thanks in advance!

We can adjust the next or final paycheck when you run payroll to refund the employee's over-withheld deduction, Kharrington25.
It's important to note that if the overpayment has already been forwarded to the agency, you or the employee has to contact the agency directly to request a reimbursement.
Here's how:
- Create their final paycheck as you would normally do.
- Select Open Paycheck Detail.
- In the Other Payroll Items section, use the same deduction payroll item.
- Enter the amount over-collected as a positive number.
- Select Yes on the warning message.
If you have more questions, just drop them in the comments, and we’ll assist you promptly.
