Payroll due dates

Payroll deadlines arrive from four places at once: the tax authority, the social office, the insurer and the bureau. No single tool shows them together, and the one that hurts is always the one nobody provisioned. This skill reads the payslips Well holds for the months you pin, reads which legs of each run already cleared the bank, and lays the rest against a dated deadline reference carried inside the skill for the United States, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Spain and France. Each line names the obligation, the payee, the date, and the amount where a payslip gives one. Where nothing gives an amount, the line says so rather than showing a number with nothing behind it.

Frequently asked questions

Which forms does this cover?

United States: the EFTPS federal tax deposit, 941, 940, NYS-1, NYS-45, the New York workers' compensation policy, and DBL and PFL contributions. Germany: Lohnsteueranmeldung, Beitragsnachweis, BG Beitragsbescheid, UV-Lohnnachweis, DEUEV Jahresmeldung, Kuenstlersozialabgabe. Belgium: the 274 précompte professionnel declaration, the quarterly DmfA, double pécule de vacances, and the réduction premiers engagements. Italy: F24 for ritenute and contributi, UniEmens, autoliquidazione INAIL, CCNL and fondi contributions, and the conguaglio fiscale and contributivo. Spain: the RLC and RNT cuotas liquidation, Modelo 111, the fichero CRA, RETA for an autonomo societario, NOTESS and DEHU electronic notifications, and convenio colectivo salary tables and atrasos. France: the monthly DSN, prélèvement à la source, the taux AT/MP notification, the CUFPA and taxe d'apprentissage balance, the TNS revenue declaration for a gérant majoritaire, and SPSTI membership and prevention visits. Two of these Well actually reads from a document you already hold: the BG Beitragsbescheid and the taux AT/MP notice, and only when that document or its bank debit is in the workspace. Every other one Well names so you know it is due, on the date the reference carries, with an amount only where a payslip supplies it.

Does Well file any of this?

No. Well never files, signs or transmits a statutory return, a deposit or a declaration. Not to the IRS, ELSTER, ONSS, INPS, INAIL, the Seguridad Social, URSSAF, net-entreprises or any other authority. It reads, checks, reconciles, reminds and prepares the hand-off. You or your bureau click submit. There is no prefill path and no portal form is opened for you.

Does it pay anything?

No. Well moves no money to an authority, an insurer or a bureau. It says what is due and whether a matching debit is already in the bank.

Where do the dates come from?

They are a written reference carried inside the skill. They are not a live feed from any authority, and nothing in the product re-verifies them when a threshold or a filing date moves. Treat every date as something to confirm with the authority or your bureau before acting. Where the source itself flags a date as unsettled, the answer keeps that flag.

Does it tell me my deposit or filing frequency?

No. Thresholds such as the EFTPS lookback, the NYS-1 700 dollar trigger, the Lohnsteueranmeldung 1,080 and 5,000 euro bands and the Belgian 274 quarterly threshold are quoted, and your own withheld amounts are summed beside them. That comparison is information, not a determination. Only the authority assigns your frequency, and Well cannot read what it assigned.

How does it know something was already paid?

From the payslip transactions. Each links a payslip to a bank transaction and says which leg it settled: net pay, an employee deduction, an employer charge or a fee. A leg with a link is reported as out, a leg without one as outstanding. An obligation no payslip covers has no link to read, so it is reported as unknown rather than as unpaid.

What about double pécule, TFR and a thirteenth month?

They are named on the calendar, and any amount beside them is an estimate. Well holds no accrual or provision record, so a figure for a lump sum is arithmetic over past payslips and is labelled as such. It is never presented as a ledger amount and never posted anywhere.

Does it watch my authority mailbox?

No. A BG Beitragsbescheid, a workers' compensation audit, a taux AT/MP notice, a NOTESS or a DEHU message is visible only if that document, or the transaction that paid it, is already in the workspace. Nothing logs into a portal on your behalf.

Is the depth the same in every country?

No. Payslip line vocabulary is mapped for France and the United States only, so a German, Belgian, Italian or Spanish payslip has no mapped line catalog behind it. Those countries rely on the payslip header amounts and on what the bank shows. The deadline list is the same shape everywhere; the amounts behind it are thinner.

Does it count hours or absences?

No. Well records no time. There is no timesheet, shift, attendance or absence record, so an hours figure appears only where a payslip printed it, and an overtime or leave obligation is named from the calendar rather than computed from anything Well tracked.

Is this tax or legal advice?

No. It is a reading of your own payslips and bank movement set against a written calendar. It does not replace your bureau, your accountant or your social secretariat, and it does not advise on what to file or how.
