auto payroll blocked

I can see the urgency of getting this error fixed, @abulleil. 

I'll provide some troubleshooting steps to help you get around this issue and pay your employees seamlessly in QuickBooks Online Payroll. 

The first thing we can do is determine if this is a browser-related issue. We can try logging in to your QBO account using a private window. Thus, there are times when too much historical data from the browser causes discrepancies that affect the view and performance of your QuickBooks, resulting in your auto payroll being blocked.

Feel free to use either of these keyboard shortcuts to open an incognito window, depending on your browser:

• Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
• Safari 11 or newer: ⌘ + Shift + N
• Mozilla Firefox: Shift + Ctrl + P
• Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + N

If it works, you can return to your original browser and clear its cache to start fresh. You can also use another supported, up-to-date browser to narrow down the results.

If the same thing happens, you can contact our QuickBooks Online Payroll Support Team. They can investigate this matter further and find a possible fix.

When I first started this, I was approved for quick books, payments account several times and God several debit cards from and then all of a sudden. They canceled everything and told me that. I couldn't have a quick book payments account. And I'm had trouble ever since. I haven't been able to do payroll. I've done several checks online and received the actual W2 forms.  But I perceive no money they have already sent the federal tax people are statement saying that I've done made this amount of money in 2001 2021 and I'm on disability right now and if I have out there they turn in the $37000 payment to made. And they're gonna cash on me. I need to get this stuff straight now. Immediately try to get a quick book's payment in town again.  Has this happened to anybody else? And why did they even cancel my payments account? I do not understand that at all. It's really put me in a harm way with my business. To where I'm almost ready to go? Under my whole business is down. I cannot even look big in a job or nothing.
