Hi dc42, 

 

Sometimes it's necessary to manually adjust your CPP and EI amounts and I'll be happy to show you how. QuickBooks provides the right tools and resources which give you the autonomy to manage your business from anywhere as long as you have a good internet connection.

 

To get started, it's important to note that Firm user under the Manage Users screen which you can find when you click on the Gear icon. Here's how to edit the CPP and EI amounts: 

  1. Go to the Employees or Payroll menu.
  2. Choose Run payroll.
  3. Select the Edit pencil next to the employee you want to edit. Note: You can also make changes on the Preview payroll screen.
  4. Select the disclosure triangle to show Employee and Employer taxes.
  5. Make the update you need and select Ok.
  6. Repeat for each employee that requires an edit.
  7. When done, choose Preview payroll.
  8. Verify the information is correct and choose Submit payroll.

I encourage you to check out this helpful article with more info on: Editing employee and employer payroll taxes. The article has more in depth info on what happens when you edit your EI and CPP amounts. 

 

Give this a try and if you have questions, don't hesitate to reach back to me in the comments below. I'll be on standby if you need anything else.
