Question

What does "CVS is requiring filing status" mean? I get this message when I try to change an employee's federal withholding even though I've selected a filing status.

I'm blocked from updating one employee's federal withholding because of this pop-up alert. I've made changes to others without any difficulty... but am unable to update just one and need to do so before I run this week's payroll. Please tell me how to proceed. I've requested to speak with a QB "specialist" for 2 days and have not received a call despite numerous requests.
