It's 10/1. I should be able to efile my 941 but QuickBooks desktop insists that I need a payroll update.
Which I've installed. Multiple times now. I think it's an issue with the software not me.
QuickBooks 2022 then updated to 2023 and it gave the same error.
I can understand your frustration about unsuccessfully filing your 941 electronically, @Susan. In this case, we can call our support team to get immediate assistance and resolve this error in QuickBooks Desktop.
We recommend contacting our QuickBooks Desktop Customer Care Team support since they have tools like screen sharing, so they'll be able to view your account and verify the root cause of being unable to file your 941 form.

Us too! Exact same 941 e-file issue today with QB 2023. Has worked for many years. State form e-filed fine. Resettng the QB/payroll updates and verify/rebuild data did NOT help.
This problem is definately on QB end. Please provide an update to fix this asap...30 days left to e-file 941 Q3.
SAME!! this is infuriating. this only happened on the last payroll update. I've updated, restarted, run QB as admin and updated again. no joy. it still gives this stupid error. FIX THIS!!
SAME!! Intuit QuickBooks please fix this issue immediately!!
Same here! Extremely frustrating. QuickBooks needs to fix ASAP.
I can confirm that this issue is also occurring with me. As of this post, I cannot file tax forms, even after updating payroll or running in administrator mode.
Edit: Called up Quickbooks. Was told it was a backend issue and they expect a fix in 24 hours.
I also tried many times on Sunday to efile my 941. I received the same error message and updated the payroll many times as well. It continues to be an issue today. It's very frustrating to say the least.
