Employees and payroll

Thanks for joining in this thread, @R-emc. I hope you're having a wonderful day.

 

Having an accurate default rate for your employee bonus check is my priority here. Happy to guide you where you can ask or get the exact rate. This way, you can create a check without a moment's delay. 

 

The default rate for a one-time bonus check will depend on your business. To find out your fixed percentage, I recommend that you contact a tax advisor or a government agency where your company is registered. To get an advisor near you, you can go to this link: Find a tax professional. From there, enter your ZIP code in the box and filter the necessary details to find an accurate one.  

 

Once you have it, you can create a bonus check whenever you're ready. You can follow the steps provided by Jen_D above. For additional information, see this link: Create Bonus Paychecks In QuickBooks Desktop Payroll

 

In addition, check out these articles below about how to edit the items and know the bonus taxation options in QuickBooks as well:

 

 

If you have more questions about bonus checks, you're more than welcome to ask here. The Community Team and I will be around to help. Take care always, R-emc.
