Welcome to the Community, @Luiqt.

 

I'm here to help you with changing your payroll pending taxes that are in a wrong past due.

 

If you have already paid your taxes but it still shows as overdue, you can learn how to record those payments for previous tax periods or payments that were made outside of QuickBooks Online Payroll. We can guide you through the process of entering prior tax payments in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

To record your tax payment

 

  1. Go to Taxes, then Payroll Tax.
  2. Select the Payments tab.
  3. Review the payments listed and locate the tax you want to record a payment for.
  4. If the payment is listed, from the ▼ dropdown choose the option Mark as paid then select Yes, mark paid

 

If the payment is not listed, continue with the steps below

 

  1. Go to Taxes, then Payroll Tax.
  2. Select the Payments tab.
  3. Select Record tax payments (prior tax history).
  4. Select Add Payment.
  5. Select a Tax Type, then enter the following:
    • Period Start Date and Period End Date - the period that the taxes were accrued
    • Payment Date
    • Check Number (optional)
    • Memo (optional)
    • Payment Amount
  1. Select Submit payment.

 

If you need to edit a prior payment

 

  1. Go to Taxes, then Payroll Tax.
  2. Select the Payments tab.
  3. Select Record tax payments (prior tax history).
  4. Change the Date Range to find the tax payment.
  5. Next to the payment you want to change, select Details then Edit Payment.
  6. Modify the tax payment, then select Update payment.

 

Moreover, If you think that you may have referred to the wrong amount and need to make some adjustments, I suggest that you contact our  Support Team for further assistance. They have the necessary expertise and tools to help you troubleshoot the problem and provide you with the most accurate guidance.

 

Please be sure to review their Support hours to know when agents are available.

This does not answer the question. I have the same issue. The payroll taxes taken out of the employees paychecks = $2127.14. The payroll tax center says this payment is $24.83. Why is this happening. Everything was fine last week?
