Deducting additional / extra tax

If you need to deduct extra or additional tax for an employee, you can easily add these amounts to your pay run. First determine if you need to do a one time extra deduction or if you will need to deduct an amount over multiple pay runs.

 

One time deduction

  1. Login to your payroll account and start your pay run as normal.
     
  2. On the REVIEW step select the name of the employee from the drop down list that you wish to deduct additional tax for

     
  3. Modify the EXTRA INCOME TAX field.

     
  4. Click SAVE and complete your pay run

Your remittance report, employee payslips and T4s will reflect the additional tax amount you've entered.
