What is the Payroll Elite Worker Charge?

Hi Xerdan,

 

Welcome to the Community. I can clarify the charges you're getting in your QuickBooks Online Payroll subscription.

 

We have an additional fee for each employee (active or on paid leave), which will depend on your payroll subscription. These would be $6/month for Core, $8/month for Premium, and $10/month for Elite.

 

The charges are part of the QuickBooks Online Payroll terms before you sign up for the subscription. To review the details, check our pricing details and disclaimers on our website.

 

You can also update your payroll billing frequency from monthly to annual or vice-versa. Check out this link for the detailed information and steps: Change your billing plan in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

Drop me a comment below if you have any other questions about the payroll billing. We'll be happy to help you some more. Have a great day ahead.

Thank your answering my question. My boss migrated from QBDT to QBO last May and included in his subscription was the payroll. However, he did not use it since he has his QBDT payroll, so he wanted a refund for it. Anyway, I ended up cancelling payroll in QBO and requested refund.

should the per worker charge be charged sales tax?  or just the flat rate without sales tax?

Staying informed about the per-worker charges can help you better manage your payroll expenses and tax obligations, Melissa. I've got details regarding this matter.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll, the per-worker charge and your base subscription price are subject to sales tax. QuickBooks automatically calculates and applies the appropriate sales tax, depending on your business location and local tax rates.

 

If your business is exempt from sales tax, contact our QBO Payroll support and send us a copy of your tax-exempt certification. This process allows Intuit to update your account as sales tax-exempt.

 

For your convenience, I've provided several helpful articles below. These resources offer detailed information on Intuit's billing practices and provide a step-by-step guide to understanding your QuickBooks invoice:

 

 

You can also consider consulting with a QuickBooks expert or accountant. They can offer a deeper dive into your settings and ensure compliance with local tax laws.

 

You can also consider consulting with a QuickBooks Live Expert or a licensed accountant. They can provide personalized guidance, reviewing your QuickBooks settings in detail and ensuring your payroll practices align with local tax regulations.

 

Finally, check out this article about running payroll reports to gain valuable insights into your business operations and employee data, helping you make informed decisions: Run QBO Payroll reports.

 

We're here to ensure you get the most out of your payroll solution and keep your business running smoothly. You can comment below if you have more questions about how sales tax applies to per-worker charges in QBO Payroll or assistance with any other QuickBooks-related concerns. Have a productive day ahead!
