Texas state SUI rate update 2023

Let's make sure you'll be able to change the SUI rate, randy4.

Once you've received a notice from your state agency, you can directly update the Texas state SUI rate. To do so, you can follow the steps below: 

1. Sign in to QuickBooks Online.
2. Go to the Gear icon, then select Payroll settings.
3. Next to the state you want to update, select the Edit ✎ icon.
4. In the State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) Setup section, select Change or add new rate.
5. Enter your new rate and its effective date. For most states, the effective date is 1/1. For TN, VT, and NJ the date is 7/1.
   • If you have already created paychecks with the wrong rate, or need to correct a prior quarter rate, contact us.
6. If you have a surcharge or assessment tax rate, enter it here as well.
7. Enter your new rate and its effective date.
8. Select OK to save your changes.

The reason why our support team is asking for proof of the new rates it's because they want to make sure that it's really the correct rates that your state provides. Sometimes the incorrect placement of decimal points would give a great impact on your SUI rates. You'll want to reach out to your state to ensure that you have the new rate update.

Thanks for getting back on the thread, @sherrieacebs. Let me share my insights about updating the State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) tax rate for Texas in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

As of now, we're unable to provide a turnaround time for when the system is updated. I understand the urgency of getting this issue resolved. However, SUI taxes in QBO will auto-adjust once the new rates are available. It will automatically apply to the payroll you've created. Please be assured that our engineers are working hard to update the rates.

Moreover, we can run payroll reports in QBO if you want a convenient way to see your payroll totals, including employee taxes and contributions.
