Question

I've just finished payroll, and there are no taxes to pay for the staff. I've never seen this before? Something must be wrong? Any ideas?

It seems unusual for you to see no taxes to pay for your staff in QuickBooks Online (QBO) as they are typically subject to taxes. There could be a few reasons for this, sweske.

 

If your employee is subject for taxes, it's important to verify that their tax information is accurate and current. It's possible that the employee's tax status is set to Exempt or Do not withhold, which could explain why there are no taxes to pay for that specific staff member.

 

  1. Go to Payroll, then Employees.
  2. Select your employee.
  3. From Tax withholding, select Edit.
  4. In the Federal Withholding Filing Status drop-down arrow, choose appropriate option.
  5. In the State Withholding Filing Status  dropdown, choose appropriate option.
  6. Hit Save.
     

If the employee profile is correct,  it's possible that the staff member is not liable for federal or state income tax in QuickBooks. I  suggest reviewing these articles for more detailed information.
