I had a  new employee that lives in MA and works in RI.  When I set up his payroll, I forgot to change his withholding to RI.  Now 1 of his paychecks has 1200.00 salary listed in MA on the W-2 along with 59.91 in MA state tax.  How do I correct this paycheck to reflect RI taxes.

I've got the steps you need to correct your paycheck, @cab21.

 

You'll need to delete the paycheck you've created and create a new one. Before recreating, let's update your employee's information. This way, the calculation of taxes will be accurate moving forward. I'll show you how.

 

  1. Go to the Banking menu, select Use Register.
  2. Select and open the check in question.
  3. At the top of the paycheck, choose Delete.
  4. Click OK.

 

If you're unable to delete the paycheck, proceed to Step 2 in this article: Delete or void employee paychecks.

 

After that, update your employees' information by changing their withholding to RI. Then, recreate the paycheck. 

 

Let me also add these links that you can read for reference in seamlessly filing your taxes:
