    Customer Testimonials


    I love your software so I bought a license on 8/20/2010. I have a computer repair business and will let my business customers know about your software.

    Chris



    We were very impressed with the software so far. ezPaycheck gives us exactly what we need.

    Regards, Linda



    Wow, you are amazingly fast! I thought it would take a while to get this up and running again but that is as close to as instant customer service/response as you can get!

    Thank you again,

    Laure



    Great. We do a lot of check printing for our clients and used another check printing software which was not flexible at all. Yours is very simple and kind of what we were looking for, so that’s why I am trying to give feedback so you can do it even better.

    jtort



    All I can say is WOW!! I know that I made those suggestions and you had said something about a gift. I honestly didn't think you would take it to this level. I want you to know that is it so nice and( I say that from the bottom of my heart) cause you know that most people would not have even remembered that they said anything about that and would have charged me for the upgrades. So I want to Thank you and the people of Halfpricesoft.com. If for nothing else than for renewing my faith in people and companies. Tell the bosses that everyone deserves a raise. WOW ! Again I want to thank you all. You all have made a friend today.

    Your new Friend

    Michael (but all friends call me Mike)



    Thanks a bunch. You are the first one in a business that has ever been really nice like that.

    Mike



    I have to start by saying that you folks are amazing. I've been in the software business for over 20 years and I've never heard of such a quick response to a customer inquiry. I am really impressed and send you kudos or high fives or whatever is current now (fist bumps?).



    Really great customer service.

    Steve



    Thank you for your prompt and excellent support. Not many customer-servicers have the capacity to look beyond getting a dollar today, I think most would have said, "well, we have his money, and it was HIS choice to buy 2010-only rather than wait until the bug was fixed, so case closed". They would keep my dollar today, but never get another one from me again. You, on the other hand, now have my loyatly (though perhaps not much for me to buy from you, haha)

    If you don't have a sincere desire to help others, you should not be in "CUSTOMER service", eh?

    Thank you again.

    Regards,

    Chris



    ezCheckpersonal worked out great! the Logo option really makes a difference on the checks. i went ahead and purchased this version.

    Thanks again!

    Vikki



    ezPaycheck worked great! Thank you so much...

    You have already given me 1000% more customer service than company I am changing from.

    I appreciate that.

    State Exemptions

    Additional Information:

    The Maryland state income tax formula contains a computation for Maryland county tax. Residents of the state of Maryland are required to pay the appropriate county tax in addition to the state income tax. Nonresidents of Maryland pay only the state income tax. Refer to the withholding formula for information on the individual county rates.






    Withholding Formula >(Maryland Effective 2015)<
    1. Subtract the nontaxable biweekly Thrift Savings Plan contribution from the gross biweekly wages.

    2. Subtract the nontaxable biweekly Federal Health Benefits Plan payment(s) (includes flexible spending account - health care and dependent care deductions) from the amount computed in step 1.

    3. Add the taxable biweekly fringe benefits (taxable life insurance, etc.) to the amount computed in step 2 to obtain the adjusted gross biweekly wages.

    4. Multiply the adjusted gross biweekly wages times 26 to obtain the gross annual wages.1

    5. 1 If gross annual wages are less than $10,150, taxes will not be withheld.

    6. Determine the standard deduction by applying the following guideline and subtract this amount from the gross annual wages computed in step 4.

    7. Standard Deduction2 = 15 percent x Annual Wages

      2 Minimum of $1,500/Maximum of $2,000

    8. Determine the dependent allowance by applying the following guideline and subtract this amount from the result of step 5 to determine the taxable income.

    9. Exemption Allowance = $3,200 x Number of Exemptions


    10. Apply the taxable income computed in step 6 to the following table to determine the annual Maryland tax withholding.
