Hello,

Hello Community Users!
A common cause of rejection when submitting an FPS is the Government Gateway credentials entered. It's either not activated yet, or it was entered incorrectly.
To activate your credentials, see this article for steps: Turn on RTI reporting to HMRC in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll. Once done, follow these steps to check if the entered credentials are correct:
After that, go back to submitting your FPS in QuickBooks Online. However, if you're still getting the same issue, I'd suggest logging into the HMRC Online Services and reset your password from there or give them a call for further investigation.
If you'd like to view all your submitted FPS and EPS, view this article: View submitted FPS and EPS filings in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll. You can find a list of FAQs right at the bottom of the page.

It's a pleasure to have you here, @info1552.
Let me share a few details about the rejected status and lead you to the right support.
The rejected FPS is usually caused by incorrect Government Gateway credentials. You can view this article for more insights: View submitted FPS and EPS filings in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll.
If you've already activated the credentials and registered the ID and password correctly, I suggest contacting our Payroll Support Team.
Here's how:
From there, one of our payroll experts will be able to pull up your account and check the rejected status with advanced tools.
Additionally, here's a link you can review to learn more about FPS in QuickBooks: Submit FPS to HMRC.
This should point you in the right direction. Let me know if you have further concerns, I'll make sure to answer them all. Have a wonderful day.
I am trying to sort this out with live chat but the advisor straight out wanted me to allow them remote access to my desktop.
Is this normal behaviour?
When I refused they then asked about screen sharing.
The advisor is now ignoring me.
How do I sort this now?
I appreciate the update that you gave, @RoscoPC.
I've got some steps to share that can help fix your issue in submitting your FPS.
Let's try to perform these processes I've outlined below to help verify if the problem has something to do with your browser. Corrupted cache files on your browser may lead to unexpected behavior like being unable to submit the FPS.
Below are the things that you can try on:
If the same thing happens, I recommend contacting our Customer Care Team to help verify the reason behind the rejection of your FPS submission. They have the tools that can check on your credentials and guide you with submitting the FPS.

Hi there @BettyJaneB
What if your using the PC/MAC Desktop App? WHich is still supported for another 12 days?
Kindest regards
Rosco
Hello Rosco, The QBO desktop app (Mamba) for Windows and Mac will be decommissioned on April 20th, 2021 and it will no longer be updates, supported or available for download. Currently it is still supported.
Not Decommissioned - That would infer not able to use anymore. We were told it would be out of support but we would be able to continue to use it.
BTW what does (mamba) mean? All I can find is a Dating APP?
Rosco
Thanks for your prompt response, @RoscoPC.
As an insight, Mamba is a QuickBooks app with more advanced features which is an alternative to the QBO desktop app.
For future reference, you can visit our QuickBooks App store to search for another alternative.
Feel free to ask us for more of your concerns. We're always delighted to answer them for you.
I've been having same issue for over a month now with both Month 8 and Month 9 - so Month 8 is now overdue. HMRC is blaming QB, QB is blaming HMRC. Why can they not sort out these things!
Its my EPS that is being rejected - worked fine until December and now nothing. Useless. Just a repeated error message that the data isn't right. But I get a rejected email from HMRC so it makes it to them, which seemed to confuse the Live Chat person who thought it was a cookies issue :face_with_rolling_eyes:
The gateway ID is all correct as I can log into HMRC with it.
Hello, Koala77.
If you have tried the suggested steps above and still encounter the same error, let me direct you to our Customer Care Team. They can check your setup since your gateway ID is all correct.

Thanks for joining the thread, @Diane141. Let's work this out so you can finish submitting your FPS in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
Before we do so, may I ask if you've already performed the steps provided by the previous representative above? Know that a possible reason for rejected submission of FPS is that it's not yet activated or entered incorrectly.
Now, to activate your credentials, please see this article: Turn on RTI reporting to HMRC in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll.
Once done, follow these steps to ensure that the credentials you entered are correct:
Once done, resubmit your FPS in your QuickBooks Online company. You can refer to this article for further guidelines: Submit FPS to HMRC in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll.

@Diane141, don't hesitate to get back to this thread if you need further assistance submitting your FPS. I'll be more than happy to help you out again. Take care, and have a nice day!
Not with QuickBooks I didn't. It turned out HMRC had made a mistake and deactivated payroll at their end, hence why it kept rejected them all.
once the re-activated it, I was able to submit again.
Oh, I vaguely remember seeing something about HMRC possibly being down today for maintenance of some systems which could be the reason. They often do it last Sunday of month
