Woot woot! They finally fixed my pay!

They fixed it!!! I am finally getting the proper amount on my paycheck!!
It works out to be an extra $200 per pay period which is amazing!
So this pay period, I used ALL of it to top up my tuition savings and put extra towards my girls weekend this weekend!
I am upping my savings a little bit and the rest will be directed toward tuition savings! I am so excited its finally coming together! Yay!




Hooray!!!!
See, good things do come to those who wait (sometimes a little impatiently).

Thanks ladies!
The first thing I did was increase my savings amount so that every payday I am now putting $50 aside instead of $25 into mutual funds. I have also increased my mini efunds (as I call them) for car repairs, house repairs, animals, gifts etc. I figure now is as good a time as any so that I don't get used to having the money hanging around!

Good job on increasing the savings! There will never be a better time to do that.
Did they give you a check for your backpay yet?
If anything that check will have a lot taken out for taxes, correct? If anything maybe a nice tax return next year too?

Hi Marie,
I have received two small backpay checks. They seem to be coming in installments (which drove me batty because each time I got one I thought the problem was fixed). I will get the last one next week, but because of taxes, it will likely only be $100 or so.
You are correct in the tax thing. For some reason they tax these pays in the highest tax bracket so I will get them back. Actually, I should be getting a monster tax return this year because of school deductions, parttime student and textbook credits and the loss that I have from my rental income (though not as big as last year).
