Although PAYG (Pay As You Go) is called a "withholding tax," it is not a tax but a procedure for withholding projected income tax liabilities as money is earned. Under that plan, the taxpayer prepays taxes in installments, usually paycheck-by-paycheck. In the U.S., prepaying federal income taxes began in 1943, when tax legislation created the first federal requirements for the payroll withholding "tax" and for estimated tax payments. The term is the common one in Australia for the employers responsibility to employees.Pay As You Go (PAYG) withholding is a legal requirement to withhold amounts for income tax purposes. If you have employees, you're required to withhold tax from payments you make to them. You may have to withhold tax from payments to other workers, such as contract workers. As a new employer, you must register with the Tax Office before you withhold from payments to your employees. You may also need to withhold an amount from payments to other businesses if they don't quote their ABN to you on an invoice or other document if required.

All taxes should be withheld on earned wages. If a minor has less than the standard deduction in UNEARNED income then they will not pay any Federal Tax... the state and local taxes depend on the state and locality.
You do not have a set percentage amount for this purpose. For the tax year 2010 the social security and medicare tax is withheld by your employer payroll department from your first dollar of your gross earnings at the 7.65% rate. The 7.65% amount is matched by your employer for a total of 15.3% contribution to the SSA insurance trustee. Then you will also have other federal income tax amounts and other items that your employer payroll department will be required to withhold from your gross earnings before you will be issued your NET TAKE HOME paycheck. You should ask the employer payroll department for the amounts that they will have to withhold from your gross earnings.
Wow...question makes no sense really. Pay is taxable, both by Feds and State, and most other places. Employer must withhold an estimate of the tax on that pay, and send it to the Government, into an account of YOURS. He doesn't pay the tax for you, it is coming from your pay.

Check your annual OPM annuity statement -- there is no payroll tax. A payroll tax feeds the Ponzi scheme we commonly call Social Security. For the last few years the payroll tax was reduced by 2% but that just means Social Security will become broke even faster.
