Can you help me let quick books pay my gst owed for last year? I can see the amounts in the report but cannot mark it as paid

Hi there, 

Filing sales tax is a four part process. I'd be happy to show you to do this easily using QB Online.

 First, you'll have to prepare your sales tax return in QuickBooks Online. Second, submit your return to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). Third, close your filing period in QuickBooks Online. Finally, record your payment to or refund from the CRA.

Step 1 - Prepare your return

1. Select Taxes from the left menu
2. Ensure Sales Tax is shown at the top. (Tip: If you use payroll in QuickBooks Online, you may need to select Sales Tax as opposed to Payroll Tax)
3. ​Next to Sales Tax at the top, find the tax agency associated with the return you'd like to prepare the return for using the drop-down
4. On the Returns tab, select Prepare return beside the next return you need to file
5. Check the dates populated in the Start date and End date fields Note: QuickBooks Online automatically adds the dates of your most recent sales tax period, based on the payment schedule for the CRA. If necessary, you can change them, but remember that your payment schedule is set by the CRA. You can't change the dates just for your own requirements.
6. Review the lines of the sales tax return, with the balance owing (or refund due) at the bottom
7. To see individual transactions, select the dollar amount
8. To make an adjustment to a line on the sales tax return, select Adjust
