Fixing Payroll update errors after updating tax tables

In case the TD1 amounts are not updated even after installing the latest tax table update, it is pertinent to have a check on the below-mentioned pointers:

• Check whether it is ‘ON‘ or ‘After‘ the tax table effective date? To make it easy to comprehend, let us take an easy example. In case you have downloaded the tax table version 116 on June 14, 2022, then you will not see the updated amounts until the tax table becomes effective on July 1, 2022.
• After the effective date i.e. July 1, 2022, after the product has been downloaded having the new tax tables, you will need to start a payroll or open and close QuickBooks desktop for TD1 amounts to update.
• To manually adjust the TD1 amounts at any point in time in the past or after setting up the new employees, the new tax table will not override the previously adjusted amounts. You will have to manually update the TD1 amounts going forward.
• Also, check if any of the employees are set-up over the basic TD1 amounts. The QuickBooks software automatically updates the TD1 amounts only for the employees for the basic amounts for the previous tax tables.
