Employees and payroll

Tengo una compañía de logística a cargo y el dueño le paga a los choferes por millas recorridas. Es correcto registrar cada pago como "contract labor" en vez de "payroll expense" ? Ellos solo cobran por las millas que recorren. No tiene un salario fijo por mes. Gracias !

For my quarterly unemployment reporting, I use to have to go to EMPLOYEES menu, PAYROLL TAX FOMS & W2S, CREATE STATE SUI EFILE. Now that I upgraded to 2019, when I hover over Employees menu there is not the option to CREATE STATE SUI EFILE. How am I suppose to file my quarter unemployment report when this option is no longer there?
Current wages listed for 2nd quarter for all employees are 2-3 times higher than what they actually were.
My company will be offering a non-taxable fringed benefits to employees. Those benefits are undergraduate tuition reimbursement and student loan repayment up to the IRS limit of 5250 per year. We can’t seem to find a way to record these payments on the employee w2 without making those payments taxable. My understanding is these payments must be on a w2 under box 12. Can you help us?
We used Quickbooks Online for payroll for 10+ years. We decided to try an outside payroll company - it went horribly. They messed up everything they possibly could. We never cancelled Quickbooks Online. We decided to go back to using QB Online to process payroll. Is there a way to add historical paycheck data for the time we were with an outside company for payroll?
I previously enrolled in automatic forms and payments via QB, but I went ahead and paid at the beginning of the month for the 941 quarterly form. How can I stop QuickBooks from doing it at the end of the month?
Last week I was out of town and working remote from my laptop. I had a current copy of the company restored to the laptop before I ever began working. I processed payroll for the week and made my federal tax payments. I also backed the company file up. When I returned to the office and and restored the backup to my main desktop computer, the tax payments were not showing paid. I checked the bank account and the tax payment was made but when restored they were showing due again.
How do I get information from quick books to set up direct deposit?
Seems the folks at QB can't do it either.
I have searched the new Colorado system for a list of TPA and no combo of QuickBooks or Intuit come up. Have any other Colorado been successful getting this info?
I currently have 2023 Desktop and love it. However, I am so afraid of it crashing, so QB Customer Service recommended QB Online. However, I do my own payroll in QB's. I used the time sheet option and then pay employee's and enter all the tax information and QB keeps track of all the payroll tax liabilities that I pay monthly, and the reports for the end of the year. It works great for me. However, doing some research it doesn't look like the online version has that same capability. I do not want to pay for the subscription, I only have three employees and I don't mind doing the payroll. Where can I find out for sure what payroll looks like on QB Online?
I am struggling with entering the Louisiana state withholding information for my employees. The Louisiana L-4 provides boxes for exemptions and dependents. There is no way of using these two boxes to calculate "allowances" like Quickbooks asks for. In doing some research, I came across the Louisiana Withholding Tables and Instructions for Employers, which provides a chart for calculating withholding. Based on this chart, I do not believe Quickbooks can properly calculate state withholding. The field for state withholding asks for "allowances" and valid entries range from 0-2. As such, the field cannot be asking for dependents. However, if the field is only asking for exemptions, Quickbooks would be overpaying the state to the degree that the employee has any dependents. Any guidance?? To me, this looks like an error in the quickbooks platform.
After many chats and phone calls, this tax is not being configured correctly. I have it set up correctly in payroll settings but trying to explain to customer support that it is taking too much out of the checks they seem to think that it is correct. From State of Oregon fact sheet:How much are contributions? Contributions are a percentage of wages.The rate for 2023 is 1% of the first $132,900 in wages.How are contributions shared between employers andemployees? Employees pay 60% of the set contribution rate, and employers pay40%. For example, if an employee made $1,000 in wages, the employee would pay $6 andthe employer would pay $4 for this paycheck. Employers may choose to pay the employeeportion as a benefit for their employees This last check of one employee was gross pay of $662 and the tax was figured at $46! After reading and explaining the problem I was told they are doing it as Oregon said to.....but that is false. Anyone else having this problem, or am I read
