This allows the payroll department 40 hours or work-week for the accomodation of adding new employee to the system [tax purposes, etc.]. Arrears pay/pay withholding. You get paid next week for the first week worked. [full-time] If you begin on monday, you get paid the following week for the 40+ hours worked the week prior. [part-time] If you begin on wednesday, you get paid 24+ hours the following week, etcy the same token, you receive one week arrears and your last work week will still produce an additional paycheck even after you are no longer employed. If for any reason this fails to occur, contact your state's DOL [Department of Labor].

What is PAYG tax?

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.

Is it legal for a landlord to withhold a key from his tenants until everyone has paid the first months payment?

Generally speaking, a tenant does not become such until he has been handed the keys to his dwelling. If the landlord has not received his first month's payment, this is the same as in not receiving the rent, which is payable in advance. Therefore the landlord does have the right to withhold the key.
