MOVE TO WIS FROM TN NOT SHOWING INCOME TAX FOR WIS

Thanks for keeping in touch with us, @psi1055.

 

I'm here to help ensure you'll see the income tax for Wisconsin (WI) when running your payroll.

 

First off, if you change your primary location to a new state, you'll need to update your business and payroll info. However, you can skip this step if:

 

  • You already have a secondary work location in which you are turning into your primary location.
  • You're changing the primary work location to another address in the same state, don't add a new work location. Just update the existing address.

Once ready, here's how to proceed:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon  at the top, and then choose Payroll settings.
  2. Select Work Locations under the Business Information section, and then pick Add a Work Location.
  3. Add the new work location, and then hit Save.

 

Please refer to this article for the steps on how to assign a new primary location and update employee's tax info for QuickBooks Online Payroll: Set up and manage work location in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

Once done, let's ensure to enter Wisconsin as the state in your employee's profile. This way, it will show up when you run payroll. If you wish to set up a new employee, here's how:

 

  1.  Go to the Payroll menu, and then choose the Add an Employee button.
  2. Fill out all the needed info, and then click the +Enter W-4 form under the What are this employees withholdings? section.
  3. Make sure to enter the correct state for the employee's W-4 including the Filing statusAllowances, and Additional amount.
  4. Hit Done to save.

 

On the other hand, if you already have an existing employee set up for Tennessee, then you can just edit it to the correct state (Wisconsin). I'll guide you with the steps:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu, and then choose Employees.
  2. Select the name of the employee, and then click the pencil icon ✎ beside Pay to edit.
  3. Enter the employee's new W-4 information (state) into the form.
  4. Hit Done to save the changes made.

Also, you may want to run some payroll reports available in QuickBooks Online to keep track of your business finances. Just go to the Reports menu, and then refer to the Payroll section. Below are some examples:

 

  1. Employees Details report gives you a snapshot of each employee, including pay rate, deductions, and tax withholding.
  2. Payroll Details report shows the paychecks you've created, including the amount, taxes, and deductions.
  3. Payroll tax Payments report shows payroll tax payments you’ve made.

Then, you can customize them to personalize their details and formats or memorize them for easy future access.

 

I'm always around to lend a hand if you have more questions about managing your taxes or anything else related to QuickBooks. Take care and have a pleasant day.
