zero check

NaeNae55

I have an employee who wants to increase their withholdings to the point of having one check a month be a zero amount. I am checking with our ACH provider to make sure this won't become an issue. Plus I have some concerns about the system warning error becoming irrelevant if I have to ignore it every month. Other than that, is there any reason why I should not let this go through?

Do any of you have an employee currently using this option? Do any of you have policies in place to force the issue so no zero checks are issued?

Nae, If you pay twice a month wouldn't it be easier to have 50% of the check with held each pay period or 25% if weekly?

She wants to withhold every cent possible for a particular elected benefit. We have another small benefit option she elected which only comes out the first check, therefor that check will be zero, the 2nd check of the month will be equal to the small amount. Basically it will be zero first check and $3.25 second check.
