Question

Need to set up a remote employee

I set up an employee that works remote from AZ with our company in OR. I scheduled a payroll for today, it is taking out AZ withholding, but not showing as a liability in our pay liabilities.  When I check the payroll set up in State Tax, it shows additional information needed from me.  (missing information for AZ - Surcharges)

 

How do I rectify this?

 I can share some information about setting up a remote employee, @lhcinc. 

 

Employees who work remotely may be subject to State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) or local taxes in each state they work in. Our payroll products can handle only one SUI tax or local tax jurisdiction per employee. 

 

It’s best to contact the state withholding and unemployment insurance agencies, and any applicable local tax agencies where your employees live and work. Check out this article for more information about setting up your employee's tax profile: Set up employees and payroll taxes in a new state. 

 

Here's how to correct the setup and create a scheduled tax payment:

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu and select Payroll Center.
  2. Select the Pay Liabilities tab.
  3. Under Other Activities, choose Manage Payment Methods.
  4. In the QuickBooks Payroll Setup, select Schedule payments.
  5. Select the tax liability you want to set up a schedule for.
  6. Follow the prompts to finish the setup.
