Question

Remove notices of prior tax forms due

I just enrolled in Payroll Enhanced, first paychecks dated 10/15/18. Entered all payroll history for 2018 with a QB's rep. We were with a leasing company prior, so they filed our 941's etc under their FEIN. I have notices on my dashboard that I need to file our Q3 tax forms with data populated from our payroll history entered, but we don't need to file as these were filed by the leasing company under their FEIN. How can I remove these notices and ensure that they're not recorded as we didn't file those under our FEIN ever?

If you entered Leased "employee" info as if that is Employee Payroll, that would be the mistake. There is no Payroll History for people you leased, for you. You were not their employer during those timeframes.

We were with a PEO, so co-employer. I was advised by the QB's rep to enter all payroll history for tax calculation purposes. Is there a way to fix this?

It seems likely you confused Intuit payroll with the issue of "outsourced."

 

YTD payroll is per FEIN, and "outsourced" can be a Payroll Service Provider, like Paychex or ADP or your own CPA office. That is not the same as PEO.

 

It's this easy: Whose FEIN is on the W2 for the prior payroll? If that is not You, this is not your YTD payroll data. When the PEO is the employer until the point of "handoff" this makes you the Successor Employer, but everyone is Newly hired to your FEIN.

Right, our PEO filed under their FEIN but the tax forms for Q3 still show pending to file, but we shouldn't file anything for Q3. A QB's rep is the one who entered our payroll history so I'm not sure how that was done exactly.
