Hello there, @Sepp.
I understand how important this is to you. Don't worry if you get a notification in QuickBooks or a letter from the IRS or a state agency saying you have a rejected e-filed tax form or e-payment. Let me share some insights on how to handle rejected tax payments.
Duplicate tax filing occurs when the IRS or a state agency receives two tax forms with identical information for the same period. It happens when you utilize multiple payroll providers in the same quarter and forget to discontinue one of them.
When this happens, contact the Internal Revenue Service or a state agency. You'll have to work with them to know whether they accepted one form or both. Then, file an addendum or resend the form to the agency, depending on the scenario.
You can also check for the common reasons for rejected payments to learn more about handling them.
Let me know if you have additional questions about handling tax payments. I'm always here to help. Have a great day.
