Hi there, lindseyspringste.
Let's go to your payroll settings to turn off automatic payroll tax deposits.
When you choose to automate payroll taxes and forms, QuickBooks will automatically pay and file your federal and state payroll taxes. However, if you choose not to, you can either initiate payments using QuickBooks or pay the correct agencies through their website.
To turn automatic taxes off, please follow these steps:
- Click the Gear icon.
- Under Your Company, select Payroll settings.
- Click the pencil icon in the Taxes and forms section.
- Untick Automate taxes and forms.
- Pick a plan on how to handle your taxes.
- Hit Save. Then, Yes if a prompt appears.
- Click Done.
Once done, QuickBooks will no longer pay and file your payroll taxes for you. This way, you'll not worry about automatic tax payments causing your bank account to overdraft.
