How to edit W2 box 1 & 16 for QSEHRA non MEC benefit

It's good to have you here, @mrscotta88. Let me share insights regarding editing the W2 boxes in QuickBooks Online Payroll (QBO). 

If you have set up automatic tax payments and filings, you can include the health insurance amounts for the period spanning from December 4, 2023, through January 1, 2024. I recommend modifying the W2 box 12/13 instead of changing the W2 box 1 and 16. It's important to note that in QuickBooks, specifically about any healthcare insurance plan, we can only adjust the box 12/13. Here's how to edit the W2 box 12/13.

1. In Taxes, select Payroll Taxes.
2. Click Filings and choose Resources.
3. Select W-2s.
4. Click Edit Box 12/13 on W-2 Copies B, C, & 2 (employee) from Employee W-2s. 
5. Input the amount for each employee:

• Apply Box 12DD for the coverage you provide your employees.

     6. If done, hit Submit.

However, if it seems that changing some details for the box 1 and 16, I suggest contacting the support team. With this, the support team will assist you in updating these fields effectively.

Moreover, I recommend scanning these articles as your reference in managing the W2 forms in the QBO payroll:

• Enter paycheck totals for your W-2 employees.
• File your W-2 and W-3 forms.
