<prompt> Human: Hello, my girlfriend is in college and doesnt work often. However she does have a job working in one of the dining halls on campus. She received a paycheck this week for 18.20, but only received 1.11 after taxes. Federal Income Tax was 10.00, NY State Income Tax was 7.00, NY SUISDI was .09. Anyone able to explain exactly why this is?edit: She worked 2 hours at 9.10 an hour this week, again we both dont work often while we focus on school work.Assistant: Did she receive any tips?---A 10 federal income tax back-calculates to roughly 300 gross incomeweek. Someone made a mistake somewhere.Human: What should we do about this then? Should we contact the federal government somehow? Is there someplace to send an appeal?edit: spelling  <response>: Have her contact payroll to investigate.
