Sales Tax Agency not populating

Hi, @EMIP. Thank you for reaching out to Community.

QuickBooks Online (QBO) compiles a list of agencies and locations for selection.

The City of Omaha is located in Nebraska, and you can select it as your Sales Tax Agency. We recommend that you first check with your tax agency to determine if Omaha is a separate agency responsible for tracking funds individually and whether it operates as its own entity.

Once confirmed, to create a combined rate with separate agencies, we first need to establish each agency as a single custom rate before it can appear in the combined rate dropdown.

To do that, we can create the Omaha City agency as a single custom rate first:

1. Go to  Sales Tax, then choose Sales Tax Settings.
2. From the Add agency dropdown, select Add custom rate
3. Tick Single (not Combined).
   
   
   
4. Enter the Omaha City 2.5% occupation tax details with its own agency name (e.g., "City of Omaha")
5. Save this single rate.

Once done, you can now proceed to setting up the combined Sales Tax Rate if necessary.

For more details, refer to the Add a new tax agency section of the article Set up where you collect sales tax in QuickBooks Online.

After setting up the custom rate, you should see the City of Omaha occupation tax listed as a separate option. If you experience any issues or need additional assistance, please don't hesitate to contact the Community. We're here to help.

Thank you Lyn_D (I will accept as solution when the authentication doesn't fail.)

The part I was missing was naming the rate as I wanted. There was also so many states that also had counties or parishes and cities populating. As long as this solution keeps them in separate buckets, that is what we need. The NE Dept of Rev doesn't collect this tax; it is to be remitted directly to the city.
