Once again, if you have any confusion about e-filing the W-2 form, we're always active to address it with enthusiasm.

I did not mention having automated taxes and forms turned on.  I have actually disabled this feature since we switched from desktop to online, and I'd like to be able to review everything before it is submitted to ensure it is correct.  My question is if I am able to edit W-2's at the end of the year in order to add the local withholdings since multiple local tax locations is not supported in online payroll.  Otherwise I have no way of reporting these wages and withholdings to our local municipalities for tax purposes.  This feature was never a problem in desktop payroll, and we were able to add as many local withholding locations as needed, and they would automatically populate on W-2's.

Hi there, OC Inc. We currently don't support editing W-2s to add multiple local withholding locations in QuickBooks Online Payroll. However, I'm here to share an alternative reporting option that may suit your needs.

The option to have multiple state unemployment and local withholdings on a single paycheck or tax filing is unavailable. This limitation is designed to prevent complications with state tax forms. However, you can file W-2s externally from QuickBooks. To do this, you can utilize the Payroll Tax Liability report to review your local tax liabilities. Then, you can record any local tax payments you've made to ensure your reports are balanced and accurate.
 

To help you out, here's a step-by-step guide on running the Payroll Tax Liability report:

1. On the left navigation panel, navigate to Reports.
2. Search for Payroll Tax Liability report.
3. Run the report.

I just got off a chat with online payroll support who told me that Boxes 18-20 are editable on W-2's, which is conflicting information from what is being said here.  I do not want to get to the end of the year and go to file taxes only to find my W-2's are inaccurate and cannot be corrected.  This feature is available in QuickBooks desktop without causing issues, so it's really disappointing to switch from desktop to online and find there are huge limitations on what is transferrable.
