Sales Tax Center Not Working

I have spent the last two days with support trying to address issues with Sales Tax Center, and the borderline incompetence is unfathomable.

 

We are getting an error message that says "Sorry an error occurred" when trying to look at our tax liability so that we may file our returns.  2x chat agents were no help, and a phone agent had no clue what I was talking about.  And when we screen shared, her answer was "you must already paid it....."

This forum is littered with people having the same problem, and QB does not post the resolution, only to reach out to the support that has no clue.   Has anyone been able to successfully resolve this problem?  I refuse to pay for features to not have them work.

Sales Tax Center Not Working

I spoke to the "experts" still no resolution.  I see posts on here going back to November on this issue.  Is there any intent to fix it?

I am having a similar issue.  The customer service people have NO CLUE.  I just spent an hour on the phone with someone and they finally told me I needed to "contact your accountant".  I said "what does my accountant have to do with this?".  She said "I dont know".  

 

Im not sure what to do at this point.  Im very frustrated that Quickbooks changed the Sales Tax Center.  The old version had worked just fine for me.

I hear you, @cgk114.

 

I understand how important it is for customer service to help navigate and resolve your concern with accessing the Sales Tax Center in QuickBooks Online (QBO) following the software updates. I'm here to make it up to you and help resolve the error you encounter when accessing the page. 

 

To isolate the cause of this issue, I suggest logging in to your QBO account through your browser's incognito mode, as this could be a temporary error with the online platform. 

 

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

 

If you can access the page without the error, proceed to clear your browser's cache. This process will remove and fix specific issues and help the program run optimally. Additionally, you can use other devices and supported browsers to ensure everything works as expected. However, if the error persists on your end, I'd recommend reaching out to our Support Team again, as the problem could stem from the account itself. This time speaking with a different representative who may be able to provide clearer guidance.

 

In the meantime, you can consider running a Tax Liability Report as a workaround to determine liability for each agency.

 

For future reference, let me add this article as a guide in managing your sales tax payments: Manage sales tax payments in QuickBooks Online.

 

If you'd like to add more details or need further assistance accessing your Sales Tax Center, we'll be here in the Community to help. Stay safe.
