CO Famli

Yes, we're unable to directly import files to the website, @Marie. I've got a workaround to ensure you submit your FAMLI on time.

If you're using QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Assisted, we pay and report the premiums for you. Otherwise, you can do it yourself if you're using QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Basic, Standard, or Enhanced.

You'll need a third-party converter tool to import the file to the state agency website. It will help you transform it to the accepted file type.

Also having an issue with the amount QB withheld for each employee.  We have the most udpated QB desktop (2023) and all the updates.  For example, if I have an employee with quarterly wages of $11676, QB has withheld a contirubtion amount of $52.58, but that is $.04 cents over!  If you manually calculate $11676 x .45% the amount withheld should have been $52.54.

This is a BIG issue because we have overwithheld from each of my 250 employees for the quarter and not only do I not know how to fix that issue, BUT will this happen every quarter moving forward.  

When will QB fix the calculating amount so it is not rounding up?

thank you yes I know, but I cannot get an understanding or real solution.  

Thanks for getting back to this thread, @marie20.

I'll share additional insights on why there's a difference in your payroll calculations in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll. 

You may occasionally see penny differences in the amounts shown on payroll reports and tax forms. This may be due to rounding for taxes that are calculated at exact rates (such as Social Security and Medicare). 

You might not notice these differences every time you create paychecks. However, as time goes by, you may actually see the differences in the amounts as they accumulate over a period of time. 

Don't worry, you can create a liability adjustment in QuickBooks to correct your tax calculations. 

Upon checking the other threads, my colleagues already updated their response to finally address the issue.

I came to this thread hoping to find a solution to this problem, but it seems to me that it's been over a year and a half and Intuit refuses to address this problem or offer a decent solution.  Is there really no way to prevent Quickbooks from rounding up pennies on payroll taxes?  You say that we can create a liability adjustment, but that is not a satisfactory answer.  Please tell me that Intuit is actively working on this problem.  My totals from Quickbooks are off EVERY quarter.
