    They are all categorized the same way, the other problem is show gross instead of net pay even though I have chosen Paychecks in categories

    Budget can't show "Net Salary", even if the category exists, if you have chosen to allocate your paycheck to Gross Salary minus a number of deductions. You need to select the categories used in your paycheck in the Budget views and reports.
    If that doesn't answer your question, you need to give us some more detail as to what's really going on.

    The budget is not populating with all the PAYCHECK information. I am attaching two files that might help.

    And when you click on "--Paycheck--" in the February transaction, this will expand to show the transaction details: Gross income and deductions for Medicare, etc., same as the January transaction?
    You need to review these transactions. A bug may have wiped some of the split details in paycheck transactions, making it necessary to review and fix them individually. You may also have to review and fix the scheduled reminder for future paychecks. Normally a SocSec transaction only has Gross Income and 1 or 2 split deductions. Creating and using a regular Split transaction reminder instead of a paycheck reminder might be easier to do.

    If one is using a Paycheck Reminder for their SS income, it will also put the SS income into the wrong buckets in Tax Planner and in the Tax Reports.  It is better to set up a normal Income Reminder as noted in the following thread which will populate Tax Planner and the Tax Reports correctly: https://community.quicken.com/discussion/comment/20211108#Comment_20211108.

    the split transactions in each month are correct but the still will not populate in the budget.
