One of my accounts are out of balance by the amount of two HST tax (Refunds) returns I received.

I am new to QB and didn't realize I had to reconcile my HST account. One return was for the period July 11- Sept. 30, 2021 (refund received Dec. 2021) the second one was for the period Oct 1 - Dec 31, 2021 (refund received Feb. 2022) 

When I go into reconcile account it will only allow me to reconcile with an end date of Feb 28, 2022. and when I do that I get the following question:

How do you want to pay your bill?

The balance due for this account is $3,545.91. If you want, you can:

I am not sure what to do at this point because this is not a payment it was a refund?

 

Thank you 

LT
