I did a duplicate payroll and have taxes taken out automaticallyhow do I correct this/

Proper management of your payroll entries can streamline your operations and reduce delays, Twelburn. Let's work together to ensure your entries are correct and maintain accurate records.

If you've accidentally processed a payroll twice for the pay period but haven't processed a direct deposit or sent payroll to us, we can delete the duplicate paycheck. This step will remove the entry from your records and avoid payroll tax overpayment.

Here's how:

1. Go to Payroll, then Employees.
2. Access the Paycheck list.
3. Choose the paycheck(s) you like to make changes.
4. Click on Delete and select Yes.

Moreover, if QuickBooks pays taxes for you automatically and you see taxes have been taken out twice, it’s best to contact our Payroll Support team. They have the right tools to access your account securely and provide appropriate solutions. Please refer to the steps below:

1. Sign in to your QBO company.
2. Click the Help icon to open the QuickBooks Assistant window.
3. In the Type or ask something field, enter your inquiry.
4. Press Enter on your keyboard to send it.
