I ran my first payroll and the Federal Income Tax didn't deduct from the employee's paycheck. Why and how do I fix it?

I'm here to help you fix this, @userhelpinghandsbyha!

Let me offer help and share how your employee's federal taxes are calculated in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

To start with, let's check and update your employee's information listed below as these are the key details that allow the system to calculate your taxes accurately:

• Taxable wages
• Number of allowances/dependents
• Pay frequency
• Filing status

Once done and you've confirmed they're accurate, we can create a dummy payroll to check the changes made. Learn more about your employee's federal taxes with this article:  Federal and State Income Taxes are Withheld under IRS Publication.

Additionally, I've also included this reference helpful with the steps needed in printing your employee's payroll check: Print Paychecks in QuickBooks Online Payroll and Intuit Online Payroll.

Don't hesitate to post again here if you have other questions or concerns with QuickBooks tasks and navigations. I'm always around happy to help. Take care and stay safe!
