The latest update was recently released, matwele. I'm here to run through the steps on how to download it to prepare for the year-end.

 

The Payroll Update 22501 includes all the necessary federal tax table changes and forms to process your 2024 W-2s. You can check out this article to see what's included in the update: Get latest payroll news and updates in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

 

Then, here's how to download the update to stay compliant with paycheck calculations:

 

  1. On the top menu, go to Employees and then Get Payroll Updates.

  • To know your tax table version:
  1. Check the number next to You are using tax table version:
  2. To identify if it's the correct version, see the latest payroll news and updates.
  3. To find more details on your tax table version, select Payroll Update Info.

 

  • Then, to get the latest tax table:
  1. Select Download Entire Update.
  2. Select Update. An informational window appears when the download is complete.

Here's an article for more info: Get the latest tax table update in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

 

For future reference, here's a guide on keeping QuickBooks up-to-date: Update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release.
