I was trying to add a first client in QuickBooks Online Accountant and I wanted to choose the Self-Employed account level. I selected "Pro Advisor Discount" as the billing option. I did not see that option in the list of products (see screenshot). The lowest account level I saw was Simple Start. Why is Self-Employed not available?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thank you for writing this up in detail and providing the screenshot, @Primavera.
QuickBooks Self-Employed has a different website that's why you're unable to see the subscription in the Pro Advisor Discount billing section. At this point, to connect your QuickBooks Self-Employed client, they must invite you as the user to manage their account.
You can share these steps with your client:

Hi, thank you for the explanation on how to add a client with a self-employment QB subscription to QB online Accountant.
Is it possible for my self-employed client to received a perpetual 30% discount by being billed through me as a ProAdvisor?
Thanks!
Hello, @KarenJoy. Thanks for joining the thread.
I want to ensure that you can acquire more details about how an self-employed client can receive a perpetual 30 % discount billing from you as a ProAdvisor.
In this instance, I encourage contacting our QuickBooks Online for Accountant (QBOA) Sales Department. They have the tools and information on how you can give a perpetual discount rate.
I've added some articles about firm-billed discounts that you can find helpful in the future:
Feel free to post again if you have additional questions about client billing or other QuickBooks-related concerns. I'll get back to you. Have a great day ahead, and take care!
Did this ever get resolved? I have the same question!
Hello AssuredBookkeepingPlus,
As of the moment, the QuickBooks Self-Employed plan is not included in the 30% discount. You can find more details in this article: ProAdvisor Preferred Pricing.
If yo have other questions in mind, feel free to go back to this thread.
