How many employees are required for healthcare benefits?

We are looking for a payroll solution that qualifies us for healthcare benefits if there's just one employee. I know a bunch of other services require minimum of 2. Does QuickBooks allow just one-person payroll accounts to qualify for health insurance benefits?

How many employees are required for healthcare benefits?

QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll requires at least one W-2 employee to qualify for healthcare benefits, @cw840. We'll provide more details below to help you navigate this process in your account.

 

As stated, it is essential to have a minimum of one W-2 employee to qualify for healthcare benefits inside the QBO Payroll. Additionally, the eligibility criteria may differ based on your state and the insurance provider you choose. Also, you'll need an active payroll subscription to record it and handle other payroll items.

 

If you don't have a payroll subscription, feel free to check this page to help you to get one: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/payroll/pricing/
