Why qb online does not update the PFML rates for WA state. I tried to do the update several times, and when I go back to check, the numbers are the same as before.

Thanks for notifying us of your concern, @madhu3. Allow me to shed some light on updating the Paid Family and Medical Leave (PFML) rate for Washington state in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

I appreciate the steps you've taken to update the PFML rates. Based on the information we received, the rates are currently hardcoded into payroll, which means we're unable to change them.
