I acknowledge your need to adjust your payroll tax withholding rates to keep your tax calculation accurate, Gerard. I'll ensure you can do it by laying down the detailed process, including the necessary action when an issue occurs.

 

Please know the acceptable range for the California tax rate for State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) in QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll is between 1.5% and 8.2%. To update it, you can proceed to these steps:

 

  1. Access your QBO company.
  2. Head to the Gear icon, then Payroll settings.
  3. Select the Pencil icon under California tax.
  4. Head to the Unemployment Insurance (UI) section and click Edit.
  5. Enter the new rate and pick the appropriate effective date.
  6. Hit Save.

 

However, you can send your tax notice to our support if you're unable to modify the current year's rate. We can change it for you to help to avoid additional tax penalties, interest, or notices.

 

On the other hand, consider scanning this resource for guidance on reviewing your payroll data, specifically your tax liabilities: Run payroll reports.

 

Kindly stay in touch with me in this thread for further assistance updating SUI or other information in QuickBooks Online Payroll. I'm here to lend a hand whenever you need one.
