H.C.G. Pro HCM / The P.A.Y. Academy
Find a fictional employee. Read the job, compensation and elections. Follow a pay statement into year-to-date totals, then inspect the evidence behind each W-2 training box.
Open the employee explorer ↓Compare job, work location, hourly rate or annual salary, and supplied federal, state and local elections. Contractor fees stay separate. All compensation is authored fiction, not a market benchmark. A home address alone does not establish withholding treatment.
Keep a single pay period separate from cumulative totals. The directory uses clearly labelled authored baseline records. A selected closed introductory run adds statements for its five workers, while the other profiles remain baseline-only.
Read known, partial, unknown and not-applicable values. A known subtotal is not a completed box. Missing evidence stays visible rather than becoming an invented zero or a filing-ready form.
The company, workers, addresses, identifiers and packets are fictional. W-2 mappings use explicitly dated training sources; the introductory employee and employer tax model is invented. This is not production payroll, tax advice, an issued statement or a filing. No statement, payment or return is delivered to an employee, bank, vendor or authority.
