HST PAYMENT

Hello All, 

HST payment: - Generally I record HST payment in Quickbooks online and and for actual payment I cut a check to CRA, and go to my Bank to pay the amount. Few weeks ago, in my QuickBooks online I saw that QuickBooks online has new feature for  HST payment - that QuickBooks can pay HST directly from your Bank account and pay CRA, there is no need a cut a check . I called support centre, the agent was not aware of this new feature. According to the agent this feature is not available yet. And I searched in online, could not validate this feature. Now, I must have misunderstood. Unfortunately I have not print out that information, so I am recalling from memory only. 

 

Can some one please validate / verify this feature. I will be waiting for replies since today (05-31-2022) is the due date of my monthly HST payment. 

 

 

Thanks 

Farzana

Hey there userfali,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us here. QuickBooks is a great tool to use, it helps keep your books balanced. It's important that you are able to pay the CRA the money you owe. I can provide some information about paying sales tax from QuickBooks.

 

QuickBooks Online doesn't have the option to pay sales tax directly from QuickBooks. You might've seen information about our new feature that can help paying Payroll taxes through QuickBooks. This isn't applicable yet for sales tax payments, so you'd need to write them a cheque, or pay through your financial institution as you have been doing. I can see how having the ability to pay your sales tax directly from QuickBooks Online would be a feature that would save you time with your tax filings. I recommend leaving feedback in the system by navigating to the Gear icon and selecting the Feedback option. These comments are considered by our engineers when they develop new features for QuickBooks.
