Automatic Payroll Filing

I would like Quickbooks to automatically pay my payroll taxes and do my filings. However, there is 1 filing that I would like to do manually since the form that Quickbooks produced is incorrect. Is there a way that I can just disable that 1 filing so Quickbooks doesn't automatically file it incorrectly?

 

(The filing is incorrect because my client is a nonprofit and nonprofits gets special tax treatment for Arizona Unemployment Taxes. They can do a reimbursement method and not pay upfront. There is a special way AZ wants the form to be filled out but Quickbooks doesn't do it)

Hi there, agrace1.
 

I can share some information about automatic payroll filing in QuickBooks Online (QBO). 

 

The option to disable payroll taxes that were already processed electronically isn't available in QuickBooks Online. I'd recommend contacting our Payroll Support Team. This way, they can help you cancel the tax payment.

 

Here's how to reach them: 

 

  1. Click the Help menu in the upper-right-hand corner.
  2. Type in "Talk to a human", then press Enter.
  3. Look for I still need a human and click on it.
  4. Click Get help from a human or Contact Support Team.
  5. Select between Send a messageSchedule an appointment, or Get a callback.

 

Please check out our support hours to ensure that we address your concerns on time.

 

You can also read this article to know more about deleting tax payments: Delete a tax payment.

 

Just in case you want to turn off e-pay for one payment, feel free to check out this article for more details: Pay payroll taxes electronically or manually.

 

Please know that you're always welcome to comment below if you have other concerns or follow-up inquiries about managing your tax payments in QBO. I'm just around to help. Take care always.

I don't need to reverse the payroll tax payment. 

 

I just want to disable the automatic filing for one filing - the Arizona Unemployment Tax filing. I still need Quickbooks to automatically file my IRS Form 941 and AZ Quarterly Payroll Tax Filing.

Thanks for elaborating on what you want to achieve, @agrace1

 

To disable automatic filing for one period, you can turn this feature off to give you more control over making your tax payments and filing forms.

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to the Settings menu, then select Payroll Settings.
  2. In the Taxes and forms section, click the Edit (pencil) icon.
  3. Unmark the Automate taxes and forms checkbox.
  4. Select how you plan on making your tax payments and filings.
  5. Select Save.
