Hello Unquire61,
Thanks for messaging us in the Community. It's great to learn you're using QuickBooks to help manage your taxes. I'll be happy to steer you in the right direction so you can continue to do the things you enjoy.
In order to keep your taxes accurate in QB, I suggest making sure you're recording/applying the necessary taxes associated with your transactions. In this case, adding the appropriate amounts to the bills in question will help keep your books aligned, saving you time the next time you file. That being said, it's best to also consult your accountant for expert advice on this. Otherwise, if you're looking to unfile taxes, here's a helpful article that shows you how to do that.
In the meantime, feel free to ask other questions. I'm here to steer you in the right direction so you can achieve your QuickBooks goals with ease.
