Thanks for reaching out to us, @hiline1. I'm here to share some information on how you can seamlessly file your state tax forms in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
To file your state forms, I recommend updating your tax table to the latest release first so you'll always have the latest features and fixes if you haven't already. But beforehand, please make sure that your QBDT is up-to-date. In case you don't have the latest payroll update, you can follow these steps to update it:
- Go to the Employees menu. Then, click Get Payroll Updates.
- Select the Download Entire Update checkbox.
- Tap Update, and then a window appears when the download is complete.
Once it's updated, please make sure you’re set up to e-file and e-pay your state taxes and forms. Then, if you want to e-file your state forms, select the method for your state tax: E-file and e-pay separately or E-file and e-pay together. You can follow the steps below to e-file your state form separately:
- Go to the Employees menu, then Payroll Tax Forms & W-2s, and select Process Payroll Forms.
- Pick the state form you want to file, then select Create Form.
- Choose the form filing period, then select OK.
- Tap Next to review all pages.
- Hit Check for Errors. QuickBooks will detect and list any errors on the form and you’ll need to fix any before filing.
- When ready, click Submit Form.
- Select E-file.
Moreover, you can check out Step 3 of this article if you want to e-file and e-pay together: E-file and e-pay state forms and taxes in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Enhanced.
On the other hand, if you need to file your state forms and pay your state taxes manually, see Pay and file payroll taxes and forms manually in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.
You'll be able to file your forms easily after following the steps above. Please don't hesitate to click the Reply button if you have additional questions regarding filing forms in QBDT. Have a great day ahead!
