Additional tax deductions for an employee

For various reasons, an employee may request additional tax to be taken from your payroll. This may be because the employee has two incomes and wants to have extra tax taken off this payroll.

The employee who wants additional tax to be deducted should complete a new TD1 and TD1 (Provincial) that indicates the additional tax amount. This amount stays the same until a new TD1 is filed. Keep these documents on file for the employee.
