re: non-profit organization, trying to set up payroll. What type of document are they looking for to show proof of ownership that they can link the account to?

Hello. Setting up payroll for a nonprofit in QuickBooks follows a similar process to for-profit businesses, CPCC.

Ensure you configure your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account as a nonprofit and subscribe to QBO Payroll or add it to your QuickBooks account.

Here's how to set up your QBO account:

1. Go to the Gear icon and select the Account and Settings menu.
2. Pick Advanced.
3. In Company type, select the edit icon.
4. From the Tax form dropdown, choose Nonprofit organization.
5. Hit Save, then Done.
6. Sign out and sign back in to see the changes.

Once done, start setting up payroll in QuickBooks. For the document as proof of ownership, you can use the organization's legal name and address as registered with the CRA or the Articles of Incorporation, if applicable.
