Automatic Payroll Tax Payment and Filing
QuickBooks Online Payroll offers an automated payroll tax payment and filing feature, but this is only available with certain plans. Here’s how it works:
- Full-Service Payroll (Premium & Elite Plans): If you subscribe to the Premium or Elite payroll plan, QuickBooks Online will automatically calculate, pay, and file payroll taxes for you. This includes federal, state, and local payroll taxes.
- Core Plan: With the Core plan, QuickBooks Online will calculate payroll taxes, but you are responsible for manually submitting tax payments and filings unless you enroll in the automated tax feature.
- Enhanced Payroll (Legacy Feature): If you are using an older version of QuickBooks Desktop Payroll, tax payments may not be automatic unless you manually set them up.
How to Set Up Automatic Payroll Tax Payments
To ensure that your payroll taxes are automatically paid, you need to verify that your QuickBooks Online Payroll settings are correctly configured:
- Enroll in E-Pay and E-File: Automatic payroll tax payments require electronic filing and payment setup within QuickBooks Online.
- Provide Accurate Bank Information: Ensure that your bank account is linked correctly to QuickBooks so that payroll taxes can be deducted automatically.
- Stay Compliant: Keep business and employee information updated to avoid any issues with tax payments and filings.
Benefits of Automatic Payroll Tax Payments
Opting for automatic payroll tax payments through QuickBooks Online Payroll has several advantages:
- Time-Saving: Automating tax payments reduces administrative work and allows business owners to focus on other tasks.
- Avoid Penalties: Late or incorrect tax payments can lead to fines and penalties. QuickBooks ensures timely tax submissions.
- Accuracy: Automated tax calculations reduce the chances of human errors.
- Peace of Mind: Knowing that payroll taxes are taken care of helps business owners stay stress-free.

Things to Consider
While QuickBooks Online Payroll automates tax payments for eligible plans, there are still some things to keep in mind:
- Manual Adjustments May Be Required: If there are changes in tax rates or new regulations, manual intervention may be needed.
- Banking Issues: If your bank details are incorrect or there are insufficient funds, tax payments may not process on time.
- Plan Limitations: Not all plans offer full automation, so ensure you are on the right plan for your needs.
Final Thoughts
QuickBooks Online Payroll provides a convenient and efficient way to handle payroll tax payments. While automation is available for Premium and Elite subscribers, businesses using the Core plan must take additional steps to ensure tax payments are made on time. To get the most out of QuickBooks Payroll, it is essential to understand the plan you are subscribed to and configure your payroll settings correctly.
