A **Pre-92 Community Charge** attachment is an order that requires you to deduct unpaid community charge (poll tax) amounts from an employee’s pay under the pre-1992 rules.

To add **Pre-92 Community Charge** for an employee:

1.  Go to **Employees** and open the employee, or stay on the **Salary** step while adding an employee.
2.  Under **Deductions**, click **\+ Add New**, or click **Deductions** on the Salary step.
3.  Select **Attachment of Earnings Orders / Arrestments** as the deduction type.
4.  Select **Pre-92 Community Charge** as the attachment.
5.  Enter the order details, such as the **Order Number**, **Issued on** date, **Amount** (fixed amount or percentage where shown), **Protected Earnings** if applicable, whether to deduct the admin charge, and when the order ends.
6.  Click **Save**.

**Protected earnings** is the amount of pay the employee must be left with after the deduction. If the deduction is reduced to the protected earnings rate, any shortfall can carry forward to the next pay period. For a worked example, refer to [protected earnings in Add Employees](/uk/payroll/help/employer/employees/add-employees.html#deductions).

For an overview of deductions when you add an employee, refer to [Add Employees](/uk/payroll/help/employer/employees/add-employees.html#deductions). You can also add or edit deductions later from the employee’s [Salary](/uk/payroll/help/employer/employees/manage-employee-salary-details.html#deductions-and-attachment-of-earnings) tab.
