I have notification of payroll up date for 2022

Hi eam2.

Making sure your QuickBooks Desktop is up to date is a great way to make sure you have any fixes or updates. I'd be happy to go over the payroll update for QuickBooks Desktop.

At this time the payroll update has not been released. The last update to QuickBooks Desktop was Release 3 or R3 which came out on November 21. The payroll updates generally come out later in the month but no ETA has been announced yet.

As long as you keep your auto update turned on you'll download it as soon as it comes out.

If you have any questions let us know and we'd be happy to help.

Hello @eam2 ,

You won't be able to see the updates to the TD1 amounts in Quickbooks until January 1, 2022.  To verify your payroll update has actually been done, go to Employees-->My Payroll Service-->Tax Table Information.  If you are using tax table version 11531003 and it says Calculations are updated for 01/01/2022 and your tax table expires on 06/30/2022, then your update has been successful.  There is just no evidence of it in your employee files until Jan 1.

I was told the update would be available on December 28, 2021.  Because there is no web patch for the January 2022 tables and the update is done within the package only, our bookkeepers will run a manual update after they cut the final 2021 pay cheques and before they run the first 2022 payroll for their clients.

Is it a 'critical fix' as it is downloaded?

Is there any warning that the final 2021 payroll should be complete?

Thanks for the method above that lets me check all bookkeepers to ensure they have updated the tax table to 2022, but a change in release would be more intuitive.

"Employees-->My Payroll Service-->Tax Table Information.  If you are using tax table version 11531003 and it says Calculations are updated for 01/01/2022 and your tax table expires on 06/30/2022, then your update has been successful."

Thanks for chiming in on this thread. It's important you're using the latest version in order receive the latest updates. I encourage you to check out the helpful articles below as they provide more info about: 

• Release notes for QuickBooks Desktop 2022
• Download the latest payroll tax table update
• Update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release

Let me know if this info helps by leaving a comment below. I'll be on standby. 

Automatic Update merely automatically downloads the update. Open your downloads folder, locate the update and install it. You may also need to restart your computer.

My update was downloaded and installed without any intervention by me. My 2022 tax update was already installed before I ran the last payroll for 2021. All calculations were still correct because I assume they are driven by the pay date of the payroll. I also ran a 2022 pay cheque for a departing employee and the calculations were also correct. However, I still cannot view the TD-1 amounts in each employees profile until the computer system date hits Jan 1/22, I assume. 

I can't update tax tables on my Quickbooks Desktop 2021 for Jan1/2022. My last version was 11431003 exp 12/31/21. Do I have to upgrade my Quickbooks to 2022 before I can get the new version?

I have auto updates on and have tried all trouble shooting and nothing works. 

Hello @lindasisson ,

You do not have to have the 2022 upgrade installed before getting the new tax tables. You will likely have to get in touch with a Tier 2 support person. Tier 1, who are the people who answer your initial support call probably won’t be much help because they’re just looking at the same help articles that you have already used in your troubleshooting steps. I did not have any issues with the tax update as it installed automatically for me so I didn’t need to troubleshoot this issue. I wish I could be of more help. 

I am having the same problem and have tried everything. Have you had any luck since posting this?
