For both temporary lay offs and seasonal employees, you'll need to use the Terminate option. Once they come back for work, you can then re-activate their profile and put in their re-hire date by following these super quick steps:

Using the option "terminate employees" will they be eligible for EI?

Hi there, Santanaalexis01.
I suggest contacting the IRS to check and confirm the details if terminated employees are still eligible for EI.
Take note that if an employee is Terminated:
They can still access Paycheckrecords.com or Workforce.intuit.com. If they have issues logging in, they can work with you to troubleshoot their access.
They will no longer appear in your active payroll, but their profile and pay records will remain in your account.
You are no longer billed for that employee.
Pending direct deposit will still process unless the check is deleted.
Their names will still appear in reports, but are marked with an asterisk to indicate the employee is inactive.
Please check this article to what are the steps to do when an employee is terminated or leaves your company: Employee: What to do when terminating.
Please know that you're always welcome to post if you have any other concerns. Wishing you and your business continued success.
I want to only temporarily layoff my employees so they can collect EI, but I will still be able to provide them with very limited hours that I will be paying them for. I still need them to be active in payroll to be able to do that. Which option do I select? Paid Leave of Absence? Or something else?
Good morning, @krobinson.
I hope you're enjoying this beautiful day so far.
For this, I recommend contacting our support team. As the only solution within QuickBooks Online would be to temporarily terminate the employee, as suggested by my colleague Michael K. To lay off the employee, our payroll support team would be able to mark this employee as inactive temporally. Once the lay off was finished, you could then mark the employee active again. Below I've included the steps to contact our payroll support team.
Please let me know if there's anything else that I could assist you with. You can always reach out to us here in the Community anytime you have questions or concerns. Take care and have a good one!
