One should expect for there to be deductions for federal, state, local and social security tax. You may also see deductions for health insurance and your 401k investments.
Your GROSS pay is before any deductions. Compute deductions, subtract them from your gross pay, and get your NET pay- that is how much you get to take home.
Common deductions on a paycheck include federal and state income taxes, Social Security and Medicare taxes, and any voluntary deductions like health insurance or retirement contributions.
Unemployment is not one of the deductions from a worker's paycheck. The employer, only, pays for unemployment insurance.
There is a priority level assigned to wage garnishments, which would be governed by state law. Court ordered garnishments would take priority over voluntary deductions or deductions for things like union dues.
The amount you receive on your paycheck depends on factors like your salary, hours worked, and deductions for taxes and benefits. Your employer will provide you with a breakdown of your earnings and deductions on each paycheck.

Payroll deductions reduce the amount of money you receive in your paycheck by taking out specific amounts for things like taxes, insurance, retirement contributions, and other benefits. This means that the more deductions you have, the less money you will see in your paycheck.
Compulsory deductions are taken from your check whether you agree or not, such as happens with taxes. Voluntary deductions are those you ask for, such as money to be deducted and placed into your retirement savings account.
