Please send the current and prior pay stubs (or the earnings, taxes, and deductions for each), and I'll write the reply with the actual figures.\n\nIn the meantime, here is a draft with placeholders you can fill in once you've compared the stubs:\n\n---\n\n**Subject: Your paycheck difference this period**\n\nHi [Name],\n\nThanks for flagging this. I compared your pay stub for [current pay date] with your previous one, and your net pay is $180 lower. Here is what changed:\n\n| Item | Previous | Current | Difference |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| Gross pay | $[ ] | $[ ] | [ ] |\n| Federal/state/local tax withholding | $[ ] | $[ ] | [ ] |\n| Social Security/Medicare | $[ ] | $[ ] | [ ] |\n| Pre-tax deductions (medical, 401(k), etc.) | $[ ] | $[ ] | [ ] |\n| Post-tax deductions (garnishments, etc.) | $[ ] | $[ ] | [ ] |\n| **Net pay** | **$[ ]** | **$[ ]** | **-$180** |\n\n**Main reason:** [e.g., fewer hours worked, a one-time bonus in the prior period, new benefit deduction, W-4 update, or a retroactive adjustment].\n\n[If an error is found: \"This was an error on our end. We'll issue a correction of $[ ] by [date].\"]\n[If correct: \"The amounts on your stub are accurate. If you'd like to adjust your withholding or deductions, you can [action].\"]\n\nLet me know if you have questions, and I'm happy to go through the stub with you.\n\n[Your name]\nPayroll\n\n---\n\nCommon causes of a drop like this:\n- Fewer regular or overtime hours, or unpaid time off\n- A prior-period bonus, commission, or retro pay that didn't repeat\n- Benefits open enrollment or a qualifying life event changing deductions\n- A new or changed W-4 or state withholding form\n- A new 401(k) contribution or a higher contribution rate\n- A garnishment or wage levy starting\n- Recovery of a prior overpayment\n- A different number of pay periods in the month's deductions schedule\n\nSend the stub data and I'll finalize the reply.",
