When will the WV wage base be corrected from $12000 to $9000?

It's nice to see you here, rosesexcavating8.

 

Let me share some information about the change in WV SUI wage.

 

QuickBooks is aware that the West Virginia Department of Workforce is reducing the State Unemployment Insurance wage base from $12,000 to $9,000 for 2022.  Please know that we're still updating the new wage base in payroll and will then adjust this employer tax for any employees that had taxable wages calculated over $9,000. Additionally, we will send you an email or in-product notification once these changes have been reflected in your QuickBooks account.

 

For more tips and resources for accomplishing your other payroll tasks, you can browse a topic from our Help Article page.

On February 17, 2022, Workforce West Virginia announced that the 2022 state unemployment insurance (SUI) taxable wage base will decrease from $12,000 to $9,000. MyCenturaHealth

I appreciate you for following up about the West Virginia wage, @fdfc4189.

 

I checked our reports, and our software engineers are still working on West Virginia's wage update. Rest assured that once the wage base has been corrected, a recalculation will be completed to adjust wages/taxes.

 

Additionally, we'll send you an email or internal notification once these changes have been reflected in your QuickBooks account.

 

You can also communicate with our Payroll specialist to follow up on the WV SUI wage change. Let me show you how:

So, I should just file incorrectly until the form is updated? That is ridiculous. I have a March 9th email saying that it would be corrected by the first quarter filing deadline, which obviously didn't happen.
