Hello there, @SEDI.
Let me provide insight into why your amount was added to line 13 as an overpayment in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
To start, you may have incorrectly applied the tax payment period that's why it turns out as an overpayment. I suggest reviewing your tax payment report and ensure that you have allocated the payment to the correct quarters. If you find that the payment has been allocated to the wrong quarter, you can edit the date accordingly. However, if the dates (period, meaning from and to date, not the check date) are correct, I recommend that you get in touch with our support team to further investigate the issue and find possible solutions.
Here's how:
- Click the Help menu.
- Select QuickBooks Desktop Help/Contact Us.
- Enter a brief description of your concern, and select Continue.
- Sign in to your Intuit Account, and select continue.
- Select chat with us or Have us call you.
