Here are some messages from the Intuit Team regarding Payroll:
- The deadline for filing 2015 third quarter payroll forms, including 941 and Schedule B, are November 2, 2015
- Check with your state to confirm what forms to file and when you should file them
- If you are using QuickBooks Desktop Payroll, make sure you download the new payroll update #21516
To initiate the payroll update, go to the Employees menu > Get Payroll Updates
- There is a convenient function called E-File & Pay that is included in the Enhance Payroll subscription (Dont leave home without this)
- Review Payroll Item Setup from the List menu
To prepare for year end payroll duties, dont forget these few tips:
- Review and confirm all employee profile information, such as addresses, phone numbers and Social Security numbers
- Review and confirm that the employee file includes their W-4, I-9 form and state tax forms
- For any special-case compensation items, you may need to include them as an addition (and a deduction) on their payroll check. These items may include
- 401K
- Health Savings Account contributions
- Vehicle Usage
You only have until the end of December to have these special items appear on the employee’s W-2. If you need assistance, please contact us at info@technologyinabox.net
