Re: Mid-year Budget Update 2009

Dear Payroll Operator,

This year the government are due to announce a new mid-year budget on the 07th April. As your payroll software provider we will endeavour to support you through these changes. If there are any pay affected changes in the budget, Sage will produce an update for your Quickpay or Micropay Professional software as soon as possible. This email is a pre-budget communication. Once the changes are announced we will commence development to produce an update for your software.

Pass it on
As an employer, you have a statutory obligation to the Revenue Commissioners and your employees. This is an important communication. If you are not the person responsible for processing Payroll for your business, please pass this communication on to the correct contact.

Receiving the New Update
To make this experience as smooth as possible, we will be sending you your Mid-year Budget Update through your auto-update functionality and RSS feeds in Quickpay or Micropay Professional as soon as it is available. It will also be accessible directly through our website
