Cancel 941 epayment

Thanks for posting this to our care, @tandrmayberry.

I can share information with scenarios. You can do this yourself and in some cases, you may need to contact us when the payment is already processed.

You can check these requirements for deleting a tax payment.

You can delete a payment if: 

• The tax payment is manually recorded (non-electronic payments).
• The electronic payment has not been processed yet.

Here's how:

1. Click Taxes and then select Payroll tax.
2. Click View tax payments you have made under Taxes.
   
3. Select the name of the tax payment. Change the date range if necessary.
    
4. Click the triangle button beside View and Print Form to select Delete.
   
    
5. Select Yes to remove the tax payment.

You can't delete a payment if: 

• The tax payment is in process or already processed electronically.
• The form along with the payment was already transmitted or accepted by the agency.
• The payment was rejected due to insufficient funds (NSF).

Timing will also play a factor:

• You can delete the Federal tax payment two business days before the payment date, before 5 pm PST.
• States have different lead times for processing tax payments. Some states may take up to five business days. If the lead time for your state is five business days, you need to delete the payment five business days before the payment date, before 5 pm PST.

How you delete this payment depends on what payroll service you use. You can follow the detailed steps through this article: Delete a tax payment.

In case the IRS or a state agency sends you (or your client) a notice about a new deposit schedule or filing requirement in the future, then you can follow these steps: How to change federal deposit and filing schedule.

Kindly place any concerns or questions if you need further assistance with tax payments. I'm happy to help you out. Have a wonderful day ahead!
