Is there any way to opt out of the automatic paying and filing of taxes by Quickbooks. They say they're going to cut off my payroll by Sunday if I don't opt in, and i'm not interested.

Opting out of automated tax payments and filings is not available. Manually submitting them through the Workforce Tax Center is no longer an option. This automation aims to reduce your manual tasks, support tax compliance, and ensure your filings are accurate and on time.

If you do not complete the required setup by Sunday, QuickBooks Workforce will temporarily restrict your ability to run payroll until you finalize the authorization. Additionally, you will need to handle payments and filings directly with the tax agencies for all affected taxes, including Quarter 2.

Please reply if you have any additional concerns.

This is a TERRIBLE thing for a small business's cash flow, not to mention the loss in earning interest on OUR money for weeks before those funds are turned over to the tax agency. This new mandate is NOT helpful in the slightest, it has now become a hinderance and disruption to the business. It should be OPTIONAL, but like with all updates and new features QuickBooks rolls out, it is automatically implemented without regard to how it may affect the customer utilizing their services.

Our business funds are our business funds. If QuickBooks cares about their small business customers, this policy should immediately be reversed. Let the business decide how/when to pay payroll taxes.
