form 941 second quarter 2020

Line 5a was blank so I filled in the correct amount.  I messaged before that everything looked okay until I got to the Schedule B & that the first payroll was reduced by qualified healthcare expenses, but not the employer share of Medicare.  That was incorrect.  It wasn't reduced by the employer share of social security.  I went in and overrode the first payroll amount & reduced it by the employer share of social security.  However, the problem is that the form was not showing anything for the employer share of medicare when calculating the nonrefundable credits.  I thought our taxes

Yes, the issue is very likely that the 941 form requires a QuickBooks program patch/update, but nowhere is that mentioned in the payroll updates nor are you notified when you run the form that the data sent from QB to the form is in an old format that is no longer sufficient for the form.


Both of these things, to tell customers to update QuickBooks, and to warn them if they don't, could have been implemented by Intuit - the mechanisms exist and they've done it before - but they didn't this time.


To make the form work, update/patch QuickBooks to the latest release from the help menu and then restart to apply the patch.
