<prompt> Human: I hear that some companies give you a paycheck with taxes already deducted and some companies give you a paycheck without automatically deducting tax. How can I check whether or not tax has already been deducted from my paycheck?Assistant: Do you get a physical paycheck? Mine had the deductions listed. Human: I get a direct deposit straight to my bank checking account. I do not receive a physical check.  <response>: They should still give you a paystub which outlines what was paid and what was deducted. If you havent received any, ask your HR or manager. A paystub is not a check, more like a receipt.
