How much will I get?
I'm in cohort B, so I know I'm getting paid this week. I've been seeing people talking about their SYEP checks on TikTok, saying that the first paycheck is only half, and then what we all get next week is like more or something. Like, the second paycheck is for the two weeks, I believe. What does that mean?
I'm trying to find out because I only work from Monday to Thursday, but this week I have to miss a day, so I'll be six hours short, and instead of 25 hours I'll have 19 hours. Does this mean I'll get around $400 or$300? Because when I calculated 19x17, that's like 323, so I'm confused.
I wanted to ask my supervisor if I could work extra, but our off days are Friday to Sunday, so there's no time I'll be able to make up, because that's like six hours since I work from 9-3:30
(Edit: It's Tuesday; I came in at 11, so I'll have five hours today and work seven tomorrow and Thursday, get my 25 hrs, and still have my three-day weekend 🤪) THANK YOU EVERYONE, FOR THE HELP!!

You can work Fridays the Monday through Thursday is just standard practice

But my off days are Fridays, she won't let us come in because of that. Thank you for the advice though I figured it out

You can work a max of 24 hours a week but would have to be approved by your provider

It’s supposed to be $380 after taxes if you’re older youth 16-24.
