Forum Post: FICA paid out after limit reached

I applied the GP 2013 Year End Updates on 12/18.  Payroll that was ran 12/23 (paid on 12/24) ran correctly; i.e. no additional FICA withholding for those that reached the limit.  Payroll ran 12/30 (paid 12/31) went ahead and deducted FICA.  This shouldn't have occured since it was the last pay period of 2013.

Why did this happen and how do we keep it from happeing next year?

I will add that I didn't attempt to update the Payroll Tax Table until 1/1, yet it seems it applied with the Year End Update on 12/18.
