is anybody having trouble with every single XML file for T4's downloaded from QBO?

this is the error I get "Error: We are unable to process your submission because the T619 electronic transmittal record contains either empty tags or missing mandatory tags." I have been able to fix a couple myself - but I have spent hours trying to fix one today and it keeps getting rejected - does anybody have any recommendations? Thanks!

Hi there, Michelle. I can see you've spent a lot of time on this, and I understand how challenging it can be. The issue may be related to recent CRA updates requiring a Representative Identifier (RepID) for the electronic filing of T4. The RepID is mandatory if you’re filing as a representative and must be different from your Business Number (BN), missing or incorrect information here can cause rejections.

 

To update this in QuickBooks Online:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon and select Payroll Settings.
  2. Go to Federal Tax.
  3. Click View/Edit next to the Business Number field and complete authentication.
  4. Enter your 7-digit alphanumeric RepID in the designated field.
  5. Click Save.

 

Feel free to return to this thread if you have follow-up questions.
