In your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT):

- Click Adjust Payroll Liabilities.
- Select Federal Unemployment under the ITEM NAME column.
- Enter the negative amount under the AMOUNT column and click OK.
- Then click Next Adjustment at the top right corner
- Repeat steps 3 and enter the amount in the AMOUNT column and click OK.
Once done, go to your Payroll Center and edit the date of the check from there. Here's how.
- Click the Employees menu and select Payroll Center.
- Select the All Payments tab under the Payment History section.
- Locate and double click the check and adjust the date.
