Thank you for reaching out to us, Juls. I’m here to help you keep your payroll taxes up to date in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.
QuickBooks updates and QuickBooks Payroll Tax Table updates serve different purposes. QuickBooks updates improve and enhance the software itself, while Payroll Tax Table updates specifically address payroll tax rates, regulatory compliance, and accurate tax calculations.
Once your tax table is updated, QuickBooks will automatically apply and calculate the latest federal and state tax rates, including withholding and paid leave taxes like Colorado FAMLI.
Here’s how:
- Go to the Employees menu at the top of QuickBooks Desktop.
- Select Get Payroll Updates from the dropdown list.
- In the Update Window, check the box for Download entire payroll update. Click Download Latest Update.
- Once the tax table update is installed, you’ll see a confirmation message.
For taxes unique to your business, such as CO State Unemployment Tax (SUTA) rates, manual updates are still required.
Additionally, you can refer to this article for guidance on running your employee's payroll.
