Can you help me and tell me why my federal tax is not counting, only self employed tax is visible?

Yes, I can definitely help you with your federal tax, Ae. I'll ensure that it is accurately counted.

 

First, ensure that you have correctly included and set up your federal income tax in your tax profile so that it will be factored into the calculations. Here's how:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon and select Tax profile.
  2. Ensure you have filled out all the necessary information, including the W-2 income and W-2 withholding sections.
  3. Hit Save to reflect any changes or the X button to close this window.

 

Once you've confirmed that federal income tax is correctly set up but still isn't being calculated, we can perform some basic troubleshooting steps to rule out the possibility of a browser-related problem. Sometimes, accumulated browser cache can lead to unexpected behavior in the program.

 

Start by logging in to your QuickBooks Solopreneur account using a private or incognito window. Depending on your browser, you can use the following keyboard shortcuts:

 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Safari: Command + Shift + N

 

Once done, check if your federal income tax is already accounted for. If this resolves the issue, return to your default browser and clear its cache to refresh the system. Alternatively, you may use other supported browsers.
