One of my employees claimed a paycheck ($195) got lost in the mail so I re-issued it without stopping payment on the original. In reconciling my account I see that both checks were cashed last month. Perhaps on purpose or perhaps accidentally; but I'm sure the money is spent and he won't be able to give it back. At this point I could un- void the check and pay the payroll taxes (late, or change the date to current so it won't be late). The other option is to change the account in QB to employee advances, then pay back from future earnings. Which is better, or is there another way to handle this? Thanks for your help.
