Question

How do handle this "Notice of Assessment" I received from the EDD? Do I e-mail a copy to some QBO person? All of my taxes are computed and paid through QBO, so what gives

I can help you address this Notice of Assessment, @cornerstoneabstr.

 

Intuit only handles forms 941, 940, W-2, state unemployment insurance, state withholding tax, and local withholding taxes.

 

I suggest contacting California Employment Development Department. This is to ensure you're compliant with state payroll tax regulations. Then be able to address this notice accordingly.

 

Check the following article to get your agency’s contact information: California Payroll Tax Compliance. Also, the following link on what to do if you receive a tax notice

My office received a Notice of Assessment which shows we owe an additional amount for "employment tax."  We can pay it but where do I input the info on Intuit? Why would there be a discrepance anyway?

Thank you.

The Notice of Assessment is an official notice from the EDD when they determine that one or more of your workers classified as independent contractors should have been employees, @andersonlaw.

 

You can refer to this online PDF file from the EDD to know how to proceed: EDD Information Sheet.

 

I also suggest you keep this article for future reference: What to do if you receive a tax notice. It's a detailed guide on the steps you can take whenever you receive a tax notice.

Thank you for the response.  I spoke to a representative at EDD who told me that the assessment is due because the unemployment tax was not properly calculated and we did not pay enough.  I will send a check to the EDD; however, how do I input this amount into the Intuit payroll system so that future tax reports are correct?  Thank you.
