Question

Need to update principal officer information, not change principal officer

Apparently we need to update principal officer information in order to keep access to direct deposit.  I just want to change the principal officer address, not change the principal officer.  I am not seeing how to do this, even after signing into our Intuit account.   I see the information, but it is an old address that needs to be updated.  The company address is correct.

The best way to get this updated, if you're unable to, is by contacting our Customer Support Team and request a callback. They have more advanced tools to help you edit this feature.

 

As mentioned by my peer above, you'll have to prepare the principal officer's information before contacting us.

This is insane. The email I received says there should be a banner to click on to do this. I've made sure my version is updated and still nothing. Why would it take customer service to do a simple task like updating principle officer info?

    Is contacting support the only way to change the principal officer's information?  I did the contact chat and got redirected to 3 different people and then when the 4th person finally came on 45 minutes later, I apparently didn't reply in a timely manner and the conversation was closed; that was just today.  Yesterday, a support person had me download a form to fill out and send back, it does not have any where on the form to put the principal officer's address.  I should have checked before ending the chat. And now today...Sorry, I guess I am just venting.  There has to be an easier way to update this information without having to go through support.  If I knew it was going to take this long I would have started sooner.

      I hear your sentiments. I’m here to help so you’re able to update the principal officer's address, @HDSH.


      I appreciate your effort in contacting our chat support. For the security of your account, it would be best to keep us updated with changes in your contact information especially, when there is a transition in your business. This is why you'll need to reach out to our support.


      You can also change the said information using the Customer Account Management Portal Site (CAMPS). Please know that only the primary contact or the principal officer of the account can change the address.


      Here’s how:

       

      1. Sign in to camps.intuit.com or get help signing in.
      2. Next to Primary Mailing Address, select Change. If this address is connected with a payment method, you need to change the address on the payment method first.
      3. Select the correct address from the list or select Add a new address.
      4. Click Save and Close.


      You can use this information to learn more about changing addresses and phone numbers for your business.


      In addition, here’s a reference that provides some helpful articles for things you can do in CAMPs: Change, manage or update your Intuit account with CAMPs.


      If you need more help in updating your business information, just let us know. We’re always here to help.

        Thanks for reaching out to the Community, 107151479.

         

        For a non-resident principal officer, you'll need to provide additional documents for review by our Compliance Team. Turnaround time for verification varies from the time all updates have been made, and documentation is received.

         

        You can check out Principal officer verification for Payroll IDV holds. The link provides information for additional and acceptable documents for verification process.

        We are having the same problems.  We have multiple clients we need to update the principal officer's info.

        On our 2021 QB Desktop versions we are not seeing the banner.  On our 2020 versions, we see the banner to update.  If we click on it, it will ask us to log in.  When we try to log in, it gives us an error.

        I called the help desk.  I was not able to share my screen with the gal helping me, so we got nowhere (she actually hung up on me because I could not share the screen and I wanted her to try to walk me through it).  She said that something wasn't matching and that I would need to submit the Intuit Account Principal Change Form.  This form does not ask for the principal's address, business type, or industry type.  She also stated that I would need to include their photo id with the form.

        We are not replacing the principal officer, we are just adding information.

        Very frustrated.

          I don't understand why it is so difficult to update the address for the Principal Officer.  My version is running the most current version, the instructions do not match, there is no "Payroll Account Info banner."  I really don't want to spend another hour dealing with this update, that I received today, and now have a time crunch.

           

          Isn't there an easier way?

            Joining the thread to help with your concern about updating the payroll information, hwray.

             

            There's an open investigation about the missing Payroll Account Info banner in QuickBooks Desktop. This means that our engineers are already working on a resolution to sort this out.

             

            I'd recommend reaching out to our Payroll Support Team. They will be needing your account information so you'll be added to the list of affected users. Here's how:

             

            1. Go to the Help menu and select QuickBooks Desktop Help.
            2. Click Contact Us.
            3. Let them know or provide a brief description of your about your concern. 
            4. Click Continue.
            5. Select Let's talk and then choose a way to connect.

             

            You can also reach out to our support teams outside of QuickBooks using these links:

             

             

            In the meantime, allow me to share these articles for additional guidance and reference when updating account information: Change Primary Principal for Basic, Standard, and Enhanced Payroll.

              Hi there, @107151479.

               

              To change the account credentials of the Primary Principal, you'll have to contact the QuickBooks Desktop Care team. They will create a request ticket to change the information.

               

              This protocol is implemented because of the process between QuickBooks and the bank to avoid filed up errors. Here's how to contact them:

               

              1. Go to the Help menu and select QuickBooks Desktop Help.

              2. Click Contact Us.

              3. Let them know or provide a brief description of your concern. 

              4. Click Continue.

              5. Select Let's talk and then choose a way to connect.
