Contractor can not find original 1099 email How do I resend?
I am attempting to set up Direct Deposit for a Contractor. When I click "Pay with direct deposit" I am prompted to "Connect my bank". I select that button and then choose "Let's go" in the "Getting you set up" To Do interface. I select and confirm my bank account, and receive a notice that "Your bank account is connected!" However, it then goes back to a spinning green wheel that freezes and then dumps me back at the "Getting you set up" interface without setting up the direct deposit. It has been like this for over 6 weeks. The same behavior persists across multiple browsers and multiple bank accounts. How can I get a bank account set up for direct deposit? I need to get my contractors paid...
I know about the archive option. It's ridiculous that I can't delete team members that have the SAME name and SAME email address. If I archive them, then there will be all sorts of confusion when we're unarchiving them in the fututre. Many of our employees are project-based, so they are archived and un-archived regularly. My guess is the only workaround is to rename all the duplicates with "Null" or something. But seriously, WHY can't I delete a person that never even existed???!!!
QBO sucks. I am a contractor and need multiple job categories for workman's comp. I can only enter 1 and have to do the rest manually. Also for invoices it only itemizes the materials instead of 1 line item. Both of these were offered in desktop. Suggestions for this are useless, both me and my accountant have sent in many requests. I already tell everyone one I know to totally avoid QBO. I am only using it for my accountant. Maybe I should take my own advice.
Original commenter did not share additional details
the current email address is a former accountant and we need her email address removed and updated to new contact.
I invited my 1099 contractors as time tracking-only users but how do I add their names to a time sheet so they can log in & start adding hrs? I only see an “employee”option, but they are not employees and doing that adds their names to the employees list.
I have two final paychecks that should have been dated 01/01/2025 but instead were dated 12/20/2024. The checks have of course cleared the bank and were reconciled months ago. I need to void them and re-write with correct dates.
I put in QB to pay contractors it sends me and the contractor a email that its accepted, I send out 4-5 per week and some weeks 1-2 of them do not receive the money into there bank accounts but in QB it says it was sent.
i changed a direct deposit to a payroll check and it now shows cleared, however, the check is not cashed. how do i unclear?
In Quickbooks Online Payroll, is there a way to set up a pre-tax deduction type, other than the preset options? And can we set that deduction to vary each pay period? I have an employee who is paid on commission, and her assistant's pay is deducted from that commission, pre-tax. And the deduction depends on the amount of the assistant's pay, which varies from one pay period to the next.
We have different overtime pay for our union employees; however, the new QB formats won't allow us to customize additional pay types like it us before. What happen, why do these changes? I like how we can customize that pertains to our union employees.
We have a third-party processor and use QB desktop for the bookkeeping part. We do not use QB Online. So what data are you taking and where is it going and please stop. I'm asking nicely. Collecting and/or using our payroll data for ANYTHING is not OK. Not a single thing about our employees is any of your business. Using your product does not change that. Thanks, -Mark
Employee is bookkeeper pd hourly and also insurance biller paid on percentage.
I upgraded a company file and now my direct deposit for a contractor has disappeared. There is no option to "activate" direct deposit under my payroll service.
i want to remove the $265 health insurance from my Jan Feb and March paystub 2025 and reverse it to as it was in 2024
we don't pay all our contractors every week, so do I need to "turn off" DD for those contractors who aren't getting paid every week, or will we only be charged IF they have a processed DD?
I set up Health and dental as a payroll liab. but should it be an expense account? I'm assuming it should be. Health/dental are taxable and employees are deducted for part of cost each pay period.
I closed the bank account I was using to process payroll and tax liabilities through QuickBooks Desktop. I opened up a new bank account for payroll. How do I go about updating the new bank information and updating where the payroll taxes will be withdrawn from? We pay our taxes through QuickBooks desktop. I just want to make sure everything is set up properly so I don’t have any issues and don’t forget to update anything.
Work notes Xxxx xxxxxx Xxxxxxx after wedding Bridal shower Italian Girl from gram Ortho appt I was using QuickBooks payroll premium when I hired my first full time employee. They were processing payroll along with quarterly withholding taxing and everything else to do with payroll. About a year in I was notified by nys that my with holding taxes were not paid. I contacted qb and they said the money was sent to the wrong account and they would resolve this issue. I assumed it was taken care of since I never heard from qbo or the state again. Another year later nys contacted me stating that there was 6 consecutive quarters that payroll withholding taxes were not completed paid. The paperwork qbo sent over was correct only a partial payment of the withholding taxes were paid. Upon further investigation qbo took the correct amount of money from my bank but at the end of the quarter They sent the balance of withholding taxes to the states sales ta
I am having an issue where quickbooks is automatically taking out federal taxes according to the IRS Publication 15-T, however overall they are not taking enough from employees paychecks. For example, one of our employees has made 17,625 (adjusted gross) so far for 2025, but intuit has only taken out 1,289 in federal taxes. Given that this employee makes ~70k/year married filing jointly, their tax rate is around 12%, so this employee already owes over 1k for 2025! And YES the W-4 tax settings in quickbooks are correct! I asked the representative on Quickbooks support via phone if I can add additional federal witholding to the paycheck, and she said that if I do, it will likely result in internal errors and fees from quickbooks, and that I will separately need to inform the IRS, even though we pay for fully assisted payroll. Does anyone know if this is true? I'm not sure if I want to believe her. I feel like I'm in an awful position having to tell my employees
So I have a problem with IRS since the name of my company does not match with the name IRS has because I made a mistake and I need to make that change first. But my question is, If I just run payroll and made the first paycheck for my only employee, If I void that check, Do I still need to pay the taxes I supposed needed to pay for that check? Or the taxes get deleted as well? I hope somebody can help me, this is so confusing.
