Allowances in Payroll -are they taxed?

Hi, DelpClem 

Thanks for your post. 

To check if an allowance will be included in PAYG or not, kindly go to Payroll > Payroll Categories > Wages tab and then click the zoom arrow beside the allowance name > Click Exempt > Check if the PAYG Withholding is ticked. If ticked, it will not be included in PAYG. If not, then it is a subject for PAYG. You may also check The Help Article: Allowances for further information.

Please let us know if you require any further assistance with your concern.

Best regards,

Doreen

Hi Doreen_P 

Suggest you check your reply - you may have the ticks around the wrong way (update! - now corrected). My understanding is that if PAYG is ticked, the payroll category will be exempt from PAYG, so not included in the PAYG calculation. I may be wrong...

Hi, gavin12345 

Thanks for this.

Yes, that is correct. If PAYG is ticked, then it is exempted. If not ticked, it will be included in PAYG. Thank you for your unending support of the MYOB Community Forum.
