Our normal weekly Payday is Friday. I was required to send Direct Deposit checks dated for July 2, 2020. What date do I use for employees that receive Paper Paychecks ? July 2, 2020 so all checks are dated the same or do I follow the normal Friday payday and date them July 3, 2020?

Hi nmbnancy:

 

Ultimately, the difference you're talking about isn't really material since it will fall in the same accounting period.  If the choice were between June 30 and July 1 it might be a different story.

Do you have any guidance from your employer on this issue; lacking that, maybe ask, or proceed with what makes sense to you keeping track of the books.
