    Hi Vaxmed

    It sounds like you have the wrong Income Type selected. If the employee is not a contractor, Closely-Held Payee or Non-Resident, it should be set to SAW - Salary & Wages :

    Hi Acctd, thank you for your prompt reply. I did select SAW.

    Hi Vaxmed

    Ah ... You have selected "Actor" ? The HELP tax table doesn't apply to this as Actors have their own tax & HELP debt tables.

    The STP Tax Categories should only be selected if they specifically apply to the employee. The majority of employees do not fall into these categories so theirs should be left blank.
