Payroll Tax Changes for 2010

Here are the 2010 payroll tax withholding tables.  Make these changes after your last payroll of December and before your first payroll of January, 2010.  (If you have already done payroll in January without making the changes, it is not critical.  The change in withholding for some lower paid employees may be close to zero, and for higher paid employees, it will only amount to a few dollars at most.)

You may manually update your tables by following these instructions:

  1. Do a tape backup prior to making any changes to your system.
  2. From the CONTROL PANEL, go to 3. BUSINESS OFFICE.
  3. Go to 4. ACCOUNTING OFFICE.

  7. Using the arrow keys, move the highlight bar down to F1, FEDERAL SINGLE 2009, and press ENTER. (Make a note of the Limits for Social Security and Medicare for step 13.)
