Let's update the payroll settings, Matt162. I'm here to help you.

 

You can follow these steps:

  1. Click Payroll.
  2. Go to the Employees tab.
  3. Select the employee.
  4. Click the Pencil icon next to Pay.
  5. Under What are Employee's withholdings?, click the Pencil icon.
  6. Click Tax exemptions, then tick the FUTA box.
  7. Select Done.

If you're unable to update it, you may have the payroll core subscription. You'll want to reach out to our customer care support so an agent can make the update for you.

 

Once you create paychecks, the unemployment tax will no longer be deducted.

 

Don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you have other payroll concerns. We'll reply as soon as we can.

Thanks Kristine - I am a core subscriber so I cannot change this. Just to check before I contact customer support. I don't believe I have to pay FUTA in TX but I do in SC. Is the process the same?

Thanks for coming back for more support, @matt162. Yes, the process of paying FUTA in QuickBooks Online is just the same. 

 

To ensure compliance with the state payroll tax regulations, check out this article: South Carolina Payroll Tax Compliance. There, you'll find details on tax forms, withholdings, unemployment, and other tax information.
