Hi, @d. Thanks for reaching out.
The pop-up notification you're seeing in QuickBooks Online (QBO) refers to a change that Intuit announced regarding how and where W-9 forms are handled within the platform. This notification is currently not removable within QBO settings.
You can temporarily disregard the notification by clicking X or No, thanks each time it appears.
If the issue persists after clearing those options and given that you've been experiencing it for a year now, it could be related to stored browser data or a cached notification. Refreshing your system can resolve repetitive pop-ups.
To do this, clear your browser cache and cookies to remove unusual bugs or use another supported browser to see if the issue is browser-specific.
Alternatively, if you'd prefer to block this message entirely, you can use a pop-up blocker extension in your browser to manage such pop-ups more effectively.
For Google Chrome and Mozilla browsers, here's how:
- Click the Lock icon to the left of the address bar.

- Select Site Settings (Google Chrome) or Permission for this site (Mozilla browser).
- Hover over the Pop-ups and Redirects section, and select Block from the drop-down menu.
For Safari browser:
- Open a Safari browser.
- Click Safari, then Preferences.
- Select Websites at the top, then Pop-up Windows on the left sidebar.
- Click on Block in the pop-up menu that appears for the website.
