Question

Who prepares the paycheck if he gets one? Does he get a W2 yearly?

Answer 1

Yes, he also gets pay-offs.

Answer 2

the US congress determines the presidents salary. it goes into effect when the current term ends. for example if congress raised the presidents salary, bush would not get that pay raise the next president would. i believe bush makes 400,000 a year at least thats what it was like four years ago.

yes, as a matter of fact, the president does get paid.  I don't recall the exact amount, but i think it's somewhere around $350,000 to $400,000 a year.  i dont think that he gets a W2, but i could be wrong about that.
