Best Answer

Gross pay is the amount of your earnings, wages, salary, tips, etc before any withholding is calculated to be withheld from the gross pay to equal what your net take home pay will be in your paycheck that will be issued to you.

You should get this information from your employer payroll department as they will be the one that would know how much FICA, federal income tax, state income, local taxes, etc that they will have to withhold from your hourly pay or gross pay for the pay period.

After the withheld amount for all taxes is subtracted from your gross wages (earned income) your paycheck will be issued for the net amount of your earning (wages).
