Hello there, Jean.

I'll be right here to help you out with unfiling your HST in QuickBooks Desktop.

To do that, you'll only need to find the journal entry that records the filing of the HST return. Then you can file it correctly after.

To unfile sales tax previously filed, follow these steps below:

1. Go to the Lists menu, then Chart of Accounts.
2. In the Chart of Accounts screen, right-click on GST/HST Payable, then select QuickReport: GST/HST payable.
3. Choose Modify Report, then change the date to the last filing date.
4. Edit the journal entry created by QuickBooks, with the memo "File Sales Tax", then press CTRL+D to delete that journal entry.

To refile your sales tax:

1. From the Sales Tax menu, select File Sales Tax.
2. On the File Sales Tax screen, select your tax agency (e.g., Receiver General).
3. Select the date, then select File Return.
4. Choose File Online or Do Not Submit a Return, then select Continue.
5. Click Yes if you would like to print your sales tax return before filling.
