QuickBooks paystubs

Can anyone tell me why the filing status and tax exemptions appear on checks stubs some of the time but not all of the time? I have looked through preferences thinking someone changed them but it doesn't appear to be an option???
How do I make sure this information appears every pay period?

Good evening, @J_Dohm

 

I'm here to guide you on how to check the information that appears on every pay stub.

 

In just a few steps, you'll be able to add or remove information from a pay stub or voucher. Here's how:

  1. Go to the Edit menu, then Preferences.
  2. Select the Payroll & Employees icon in the icon list, then the Company Preferences tab.
  3. Choose Pay Stub & Voucher Printing button.
  4. In the Payroll Printing Preferences window, mark any of the checkboxes to display the information.
  5. Hit OK twice.

Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with. Happy Tuesday!

Thanks Ashley for your response.  However, there is not a check box to display the Filing Status and Number of Exemptions.

Thank you for getting back to us here on the Community page, @J_Dohm.

 

The filing status and the number of exemptions information will only reflect on the recent paycheck or haven't been printed yet. If you're trying to print the old pay stubs, the details won't show up from there.

 

For additional reference about printing pay stubs in QuickBooks Desktop, read this article: Print pay stubs in QuickBooks Desktop.

Has this issue been resolved yet?  I'm having the same problem and can't find a fix for it.  The filing status and allowances are no longer printing on the paystubs regardless if it's a new check or older.

Hi there, @mfid352.

 

Thank you for posting your question here. I'd be glad to provide info with the filing status and allowances showing on your pay stubs.

 

After reviewing this thread, since this isn't showing on your new paychecks as well, I'd suggest making sure your tax table is up to date. The last release was on February 20, 2020, and the latest Payroll is 22006.

 

To download the latest tax table in QuickBooks Desktop, here's how:

  1. Go to the Employees menu.
  2. Select Get Payroll Updates.
  3. Click on the Download Entire Update checkbox.
  4. Choose Download Latest Update, and then a window will appear when the download is complete.

That's all for it. For more information about the latest payroll updates, you can refer back to this article: Latest payroll news and updates.

 

If you have any more questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach back out. Have a safe and productive week ahead!
