We used to own an S Corp, but closed that business, and my husband became self-employed. I used Quickbooks 2021 Pro to track his business and two other LLC's.
When first updating our company file to account for the self-employment, we had a FEIN and a payroll subscription, so that I could readily edit our company name in My Company. But after becoming self-employed (and no longer needing Quickbooks Enhanced Payroll), I edited the company name, and made a typo I didn't notice for some time.
I subsequently found out I couldn't correct the typo in My Company because that option is "grayed out" due to our lack of a FEIN. I keep getting an error message that a Federal ID is required.
I tried getting help from Intuit (I have a case number) when I had an older version of Quickbooks. They said if I upgraded, the problem would be corrected. I've since done just that, but the problem still exists. I emailed Intuit at [email address removed] (and need help preparing their Payroll Entity Change form), but received no response, and this was months ago.
If anyone knows how to work around this issue, or if someone at Intuit reads this query, I'd still really like to correct that typo. I would have appreciated their replying to my email. Thanks so much for your help.
