Well, it doesn't have a negative number, but, I subtracted my taxes + deductions from my gross and I am short the exactly the amount of the "excess life".
I check with a friend and his was the same thing. Can you guys look at yours on the green screen and see if you are short too?


edit...I just checked last years paystubs and found that on the 1st paycheck every month, I was having $67.50 taken out of my paycheck for excess life. I guess I just never noticed it was being deducted since it was under "other earnings"?
