Taxes

I don't file HST until the end of the year but need to pay quarterly. Recording a payment won't print a cheque, and creating a cheque doesn't apply it to the sales taxes.

Need to setup the QST, BC, MB & Sk PST percentage in the QBO

Is there a way to create a GST included option under the tax rate? 

For an individual who holds a work permit in Canada, he is an Iranian citizen and there are no tax treaties between Iran and Canada. Is he obligated to file T1135? He earned a salary in Canada.

After I filed my year-end HST return I made additional expense entries with HST for that year. This results in a refund. The amount is currently sitting in GST/HST Payable account as debit balance and I believe it should be moved to AR so that the refund can be applied. What is the best way to address this? I use Desktop Pro version.

I cannot see filings for periods 2020 or 2021.  I cannot make payments or refunds under the Tax Centre.

Using QB Desktop Pro 2021, I am trying to file sales tax for the period. Filing sales tax for the previous period has been already done and payment to CRA is recorded in QBD. Ran "File Sales Tax" from Sales Tax menu, selected the agency and the dates, then clicked on "Print Return" to save a copy of the report before file the return.Previously, I would click on "File Return" and then would select "Paper or other filing method" to save the report by printing as PDF. But this time I used "Print Return" button and then clicked the File Return button. The issue is that each time I click on File Return button, a warning window opens saying "A Sales Tax return already exists for the date selected. Please select another date." and I can't go any further by closing it.Please advise what I should do. How this could be fixed?

My expenses were properly allocated to its right location, but its corresponding HST was not. why does it happen?

Hi,I am in Canada and wondering if the QBO Sales Taxes module can track Sales taxes outside Canada, i.e. in a US state. The problem I see is that it can do it but in CAD not in USD. is there a way to change the currency from CAD to USD in the Payable and Suspense accounts linked to the sales module when we create a custom agency and tax for that specific US state?

How to record interest from HST filing

Hi, The translation in French for taxes in Quebec are wrong in most parts of the app. It should read TPS and TVQ instead of GST and QST - QC. Furthermore, QST - QC is redundant since QST means Quebec Sales Taxes. Those names show up in various places, especially directly on invoices, even if we set the language properly to French. This is the one place that annoys me the most because my french speaking clients see that and some of them don't know what it means. Thanks.

I started using QBO after my year-end and my taxes were done through another website. Now I received the refund in my bank account and I'm not sure how to categorize it.

I only see that I can enter values into the "Refund To", "Refund Date" and "Refund Amount" fields before I click on Record Refund.  Will I find an Add Interest box somewhere?

I am trying to undue GST return filing. However, QBO doesn't let me. A pop up message says to first delete payment recorded. However, there is no payment recorded for the filing concerned. Please help.

We are a Canadian business with a purchase made  from US client.  This makes them GST exempt,  but still exposed to provincial tax.  The bookkeeper says just zero out the GST at invoice subtotal,  but there would be no associated tax code for ITC balancing......or will there?

sales tax

I have taken over the books for a company where the sales tax module was not used for a couple of years but it is being used now. I am confused by the appearance of 3 GST accounts on the balance sheet (GST suspense, GST payable, GST NET) and what they are for and how to adjust them (ie J/E).
