Can a payment date for tax payment be changed?

Hi there, 

I'm glad you've taken the time to reach out to us with your questions. It's important to record all transactions with the proper date in your QuickBooks Online account. I'd be happy to explain how to change the payment date for your tax payment. 

The steps will vary depending on whether you're referring to Sales Tax, or Payroll Tax. I'll provide both sets of instructions just to ensure I'm covering the bases! 

To change the payment date for a Sales Tax payment: 

1. Click the Taxes tab on the left navigation menu. 

2. Ensure you've selected Sales Tax at the top of the page.

3. Toggle over to Payments.

4. Click the small triangle drop-down next to View for the payment you need to edit. 

5. Select Delete. 

Once deleted, you can now record your payment again, using the correct date.

To change the payment date for a Payroll Tax payment:

1. Click the Taxes tab on the left navigation menu. 

2. Ensure you've selected Payroll Tax at the top of the page.

3. Click "View tax payments you have made".

4. Click the blue link that says Federal Taxes next to the payment you need to edit.

5. Select Delete.

Once deleted, record the payment again, using the correct date. 

That's all there is to it. I hope this helps get you back in working order. If you've got any other questions, just let me know.

Cheers!
