I'm having the exact same issue with MD Unemployment Insurance filings/payments.  Provided MD the POA and Beacon is showing POA active for PayCycle.  QBO is showing 'action required' and 'file manually.'  I spoke to MD Dept of Unemployment Insurance and was told they do not contact QBO.  I was told to tell QBO the status is active and good to go.  I have spent HOURS on the phone with QBO payroll support, uploaded screenshots, and right now I'm on hold for 55 minutes while the rep 'waiting to talk to a peer.'  I don't get why this is so difficult.
