Hi @andreairenestudio.

 

I hope your day is going well.

 

The option to turn off automatic tax payments varies depending on which payroll service you have. If you pay and file your taxes you can turn off automatic payments in your payroll settings.

 

  1. Select the Settings ⚙ icon, then select Payroll Settings.
  2. In the Taxes and forms section, select Edit ✎.
  3. Clear the Automate taxes and forms checkbox.
  4. Select how you plan on making your tax payments and filings.
    • I'll initiate payments and filings using QuickBooks.
      • We’ll let you know when your tax payments and form filings are due. You'll see reminders in your payroll to do list. When you're ready to pay or file your payroll taxes, see steps in Pay and file payroll taxes online.
    • I'll pay and file the right agencies through their website or by mail.
  5. Select Save.

 

Please note: You can't turn this feature off during January to prevent tax filing issues.

 

With full-service versions of QuickBooks Online Payroll, QuickBooks Desktop Payroll, and Intuit Online Payroll, Intuit sends your payroll taxes and forms automatically to ensure your business processes taxes on time.
