How can I add a second office location?

Hi there, mcolbert. You've come to the right place. The Community is here to help.
 

In QuickBooks Online Advanced Payroll, you can set up multiple locations and assign employees to them. Here's how:
1. Go to the Gear (icon, then Payroll Settings.
2. Click on Locations.
3. Choose Add location.
4. Enter the Location name, Address, and Phone number.
5. Hit Save and close.
 

Once you've created a new work location, you can assign employees to it:
1. Go to Employees.
2. Add a new worker or edit an existing one from the list.
3. Open the Employment tab.
4. In the Location drop-down menu, choose the work location.
5. Select Save and close.
 

Now you'll be able to have multiple locations and document which employees work at a specific business address.
 

Here's a few helpful resources about adding and using multiple locations in QuickBooks Online:

Thank you, but I don't have Advanced Payroll.  The problem is my Unemployment Tax is not being attributed to my employees that work/live in another state.  It is all accrued in VA and paid to VA.  It should be split between MD and VA.

Hi, mcolbert.

 

Allow me to step in and help you with your Unemployment Tax in QuickBooks Online.

 

When setting up payroll, you’ll have to enter the necessary details including the work location and employees’ addresses. QuickBooks generates the forms and taxes to set up based on the employees’ residence and work locations.

 

We want you to stay compliant with your tax regulations, which is why the software will require and prompt you to enter the information for each state. Even if the business and employees are in different states, some agencies have reciprocity agreement and may require employers to file and pay taxes for each one.

 

To know more about this agreement, you can go through these articles:

If there’s anything else you need help with concerning payroll, please feel free to reach back out and I'll be happy to help. Have a great day!
