Hi LeeQ,
Thank you for your post.
Please ensure you are selecting the tax table from this location:
Not:
When you open the PAYG Withholding category, this is just an information window on each tax table, it does not affect the employee card (hence why it will always revert to the top tax table - foreign resident). Only by selecting the relevant tax table from the dropdown (as pointed out in the first image) will affect your employee card.
If you require further assistance with this, please let me know.

Ok Thanks Sam - That makes sense and the Tax Free Thershold is selected in the area you have advised.
Only thing is when I recently did a pay for $480. It didnt take any PAYG - by my calculations from the ATO Tax Tables, it should have taken some tax???
Hi LeeQ,
Thanks for your reply.
Which categories were used in this pay run? Just Base Hourly? Were there any allowances that may be exempt from tax?
I would advise checking each of this employee's wage categories to see if any are exempt from tax (and if that needs correcting).
Let me know how you go.
Hi
Is the pay weekly?
If so then yes PAYG should be taken out
If fortnightly - then no PAYG
Check the employee card and check payroll details
wages tab is the frequency set up correctly
in Taxes tab is PAYG ticked
In standard pay tab does PAYG appear ( in bold)with calculated (greyed out) appear
Hope that helps
Lisa
Thank you everyone - I think I am back on track!
