How do I add additional taxes to be deducted from an employee?

When I added the additional tax deduction it does not show up on the PD7A.  What have I done wrong?

You've done nothing wrong. Additional Tax is included Tax  line on the PD7A. It is not reported separately.

I have the exact same issue. my added tax for one employee does not show up in the PD7A.

did the addition by using the TAXES and TD1 button and made sure it was added under box 22 on for the report. is there something I missed? been doing my remitance for the last 3 months and just noticed it.

The Additional Tax is not reported separately - it is added to the Regular Tax and reported in box 22 on the T4.

I agree, the amount shows up in the monthly report and is calculated in the T4.

it just does not show up in the PD7A. I verified in the tax deductions and it is not there.

this means I have to manually add the extra tax in my report to CRA.

any way to modify the PD7A report within QB?

thanks! 

The Employee Profile>Taxes and TD1 should be set up as below (Screenshot 1). If it is, then the Additional Tax of $25.00 is included in the Tax Deductions (Screenshot 2). It is not reported separately anywhere.

mine just wont show up. will try and redo a new one and see what happens.

thanks,

Good morning too, Yvan.

 I have here the screenshot for the first step on how to manually add the extra tax in your report.

I have articles here that you can check as well:

• Changes to TD1 Basic Personal Amount calculation for employees in Nova Scotia.
• Understand reports.

Fill me in if there's something you'd like to know about your Employee taxes. Have a great day!

Do you see it now?

Impossible, thank you!

think I just found my mistake....

what I did is added an Item under OTHER TAXES.

when I should of just added an amount under ADDITIONAL TAX.

I imagine this new tax will show up on every paycheck?

thanks a lot again and have a good day!

If you are asking about the Other Tax item you created, it will be reported on each paycheque that the Item is used on. You can rsuppress it by making the Tax Item inactive in your Payroll Item list.

If you are asking about the Additional Tax, it will not appear anywhere. As I have been saying, Additional Tax is combined with Tax normally deducted and reported rolled into the Tax Deductions on the PD7A.

I have an employee who would like an additional 50 per pay period taken off so under additional taxes do I put in $50.00 or do I put in the yearly amount of $1300.00?   (26 payperiods x 50.00)

Hi Lousie56,

I know there are often times when employees will request you take additional taxes from their earnings. QuickBooks Desktop makes this simple to do. Let me guide you through the process.

To create the additional tax deduction, follow these simple steps:

1. Go to Employees from the top menu bar.
2. Select the Employee Centre.
3. On Employee Profile that you want to add the deduction click the Pencil Icon.
4. Click on the Payroll Info tab.
5. Click on Taxes and TD1.
6. Enter the additional tax to be deducted on each paycheque in the Additional Tax box.
7. Click OK.

I'm sure you'll have no trouble completing the task. If you do need a helping hand, let me know. Have an amazing day!

Can this amount be a percentage or does it need to be $ figure?

Hi Comp Co.

In the default rate and limit section of creating a new deduction in QuickBooks Desktop you have the option to pick either dollar amount or percentage. If you wish it to be percentage you just need to add the percent icon after you enter the amount.

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