Question

Payroll - unemployment tax rate outside of QBO range

Oregon - We got a notice of change for our payroll unemployment tax rate and its lower, .75% outside of the range allowed by QBO of 0.9% - 5.4%.

The date of change is 1/1/2023. I ran into this trying to set the change and effective date in the system. Is this something that will be fixed by year end?

Hello there, Dirkdaddy.

 

I'm here to share more information when modifying the state unemployment rate. 

 

QuickBooks complies with your state. Thus, if the new rate you received is .75%, you can enter it into the system. If the rate is provided as a decimal, you must enter it as a percentage. For example, enter 3.4% (not .034).

 

 

I've also added this reference as your guide in modifying the rate: Update your State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) rate.

 

If you need anything else, please let me know. Thanks for dropping by.

Hello, perhaps you need to re-read my posting. The range in QB is exclusive of the % I need to enter, and yes using the correct decimal for the .75%

 

I am assuming that the state has not yet updated their range? If that's so its not available to input to you folks to update QBO yet, but I was asking if that was the case, not how to do it.

Thanks for getting back to us and adding more information about your concern, Dirkdaddy.

 

Yes, the system will automatically update once your state updates its range. Let's wait for the update to reflect in your book soon. Though, we cannot tell you an exact date when this option will be ready.

 

If there are no changes after the tax rate/ range update, we can consider contacting our Payroll Support Team. They will help us further to input this in QBO soon. Here's how:

 

  1. Log in to your QBO account.
  2. Click Help and select Contact us.
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.

 

Still, we can utilize these references for additional tips and details about changing tax rates and generating payroll reports based on your desired information:
