Let us share some information about the Quebec Sales Tax (QST) tax setup in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE), Sergio.
Currently, Quebec Sales Tax is not supported since it has a distinct taxability rule, as its administration differs from that of federal and other provincial taxes. Based on the province you select when setting up sales tax in your work information, this is the reason why the program will not give you an option to choose No Tax in the Tax setup. There are three types of sales tax supported to add to your invoices: Goods and Services Tax (GST), Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), and Provincial sales taxes (PST). To learn more about this one, check out this article: Sales Tax overview.
Just in case you need to manually add transactions in QBSE, follow the steps below:
- Go to the Transaction menu and select Add Transaction.
- Enter the amount and a description.
- Choose the Select a category menu. Select the best category to organize your transaction.
- If you have a receipt, you can drag and drop it onto the form.
- When you’re done, press Save.
Then, you can categorize the transactions you enter into QBSE. For the steps and details, check out this article: Categorize transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
