Hi,

 

I am new to QB self-employed and was not sure how to add the tax on expenses.

For instance, one of my expenses is from Adobe and I know they charge me for HST. But not sure how to enter the correct amount. All their invoices are in USD and I am paying them in CAD which makes everything more complicated to me.

 

Please advise.

 

Thanks,

Sasan

Hello Sasan,

 

Making sure you have the correct sales tax applied to transactions is important for managing your books. Once you've got sales tax set up in your QuickBooks Self-Employed account, applying the taxes is as simple as choosing which you need for which transaction.

 

I recommend reviewing the following article which goes over how to set up sales tax as well as how to apply it to your transactions: Sales Tax overview

 

If you've already done all that and are still having trouble, don't be afraid to reach out to the QuickBooks Self-Employed support team through the QB Assistant tool. All you need to do is open the tool, type "talk to human," hit enter, and follow the prompts. Here's an article that explains the tool: Contact QuickBooks Self-Employed support

 

We're excited to have you as a part of the QuickBooks family! Have a great week. :)
