Exemption Calculation Tables for Exemption Rules

The government might have specified either a percentage of the employee's wages or a minimum amount that cannot be garnished. You can create different types of exemption calculation tables to calculate the exemption amount, including:

  • A single range table in which an exemption amount is calculated by determining the range within which the employee's wages fall.

    The exception amount is a flat dollar amount.

  • A single range table in which an exemption amount is calculated by determining the range within which the employee's wages fall.

    The exception amount is a percentage.

  • A progressive exemption table in which an exemption amount is calculated for each row in which the employee's wages are greater than the upper limit or the employee's wages fall within the upper and lower limit.

Use the Table Method field to specify the type of exemption calculation table that you want to use. The table type is E, for exemption table.

Note: (CAN) Legislation exists within Canada requiring either a specific amount or a percentage of wages to be exempt from maintenance orders (child support) and garnishments.
