Garnishments

The state takes out my employees garnishments on Friday weekly. Quickbooks requires me to submit payroll each Wednesday to get the employees paid on Friday. Hence the dates don’t correspond in the check register. Additionally the only option to schedule the garnishments is weekly for the previous week. So the liability that shows up in Quickbooks is never for the current week but the next week. Any suggestions on how to correct these two problems.

Garnishments

Hello, @Divrem. I’d be glad to assist you with your query about your employee’s garnishments in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

Beforehand, I’d suggest following the requirement of QuickBooks to submit payroll each Wednesday to get your customer’s paid on Friday.

 

Otherwise, if you want to submit your payroll and get your employees paid on Friday, you’ll want to apply for Same-day or Next-day direct deposit processing time. This way, your employees will be paid on time. Hence, this will be based on your direct deposit lead time.

 

If you need further assistance with this process, I’d recommend reaching out to our QuickBooks Online Payroll Support. This way, they’ll be able to pull up your account or have a screen share with you in a secure environment to guide you through this.

 

Here’s how to get in touch with them:
