When entering an employees payroll history, what do we need to enter in the Employer taxes section?

Hi there, Emitrovic.

Great question. The Employer Taxes section in QuickBooks Online (QBO) captures all contributions the employer is responsible for paying. These amounts cover Federal, Provincial, and Quebec-specific obligations based on the employee's earnings.

Here's what you'll want to include:

1. Employer contributions to Canada Pension Plan (CPP).
2. Employer contributions to Employment Insurance (EI).
3. Employer contributions to the Quebec Pension Plan (QPP), if applicable.
4. Federal Income Tax.
5. Any provincial payroll taxes or health taxes required by the province.
6. Other employer-paid payroll taxes or premiums specific to your region.
