Got a letter in the mail that WV unemployment is reducing its wage base from $12,000 to $9,000 as of 1st Quarter 2022. Is Quickbooks aware and will this be ready for quarterly contributions?

Welcome to the Community forum, @bfisher07. Allow me to share information on the Taxable wage base. 

 

QuickBooks will automatically change the new wage limit once there are updates to stay compliant with your state tax laws and regulations. At the moment, we don't have a specific timeframe as to when will this be available. 

 

Once updated, QuickBooks will automatically pro-rate based on payrolls that have been running already this year, so you won't need to worry about manually changing any information.

 

Additionally, if you wish to review your employee's wage base, you can run the Payroll Detail Review report in QuickBooks. For more details about it, please see this article: Payroll tax and wage base limits.
