I appreciate you informing us that you're experiencing overcharges in your 401k contribution calculations, @conroy1. Let me discuss this in detail. 

 

Calculations will depend on the tax tracking type used for your retirement plan. That said, it is used to associate with the deductions. I recommend consulting your accountant or tax advisor about what's the best tax tracking type to use.

Thanks for the reply but to call support I will get the same answers I received the other day. It is my fault as I might have assigned wrong which is why I wrote here. I explained that I am a mechanic and Quickbooks is supposed to to give advice to me on how to handle.No one even knew what I was trying to explain.I still need to know how to handle with State of Illinois.
