Hi Sarah Forster,
I appreciate you reaching out to us here. It's important to have the payroll calculations aligned with government guidelines in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll. I'd be happy to shed some light on this!
Earlier this year, the Government of Manitoba announced an increase to the basic personal amount, that went into effect January 1, 2023. The personal amount was increased to $15,000. However, since employees have received a lower amount over the first six months of the year, you'll see a prorated amount of $19,145 applied for the remaining six months, commencing on the first payroll in July.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us, or reach back out here. We're always glad to help!
