It's my priority to e-file State W2s, Vs Bk.

 

Let's make sure your version of QuickBooks is up-to-date. After you update, open QuickBooks and create the state W-2 again. Let me show you how: 

 

  1. Go to Employees, then Payroll Tax Forms & W-2s, and click create State W-2 E-file.
  2. Tap Continue twice.
  3. Select your state from the dropdown, then select Get QuickBooks Data.
  4. Hit OK. If you need to, fix any errors or add missing info.
  5. Choose the Add-Ins tab to locate the QuickBooks Payroll State W-2 dropdown and choose Start Interview.
  6. Check the box I understand that I must review my data and answer the following questions. Then Next.
  7. Note the file name and location. Hit Next.
  8. Answer the questions in the interview and review any auto-populated info.
  9. Click Next until you reach the End of Interview.
  10. Choose Create W-2 File, then select OK.
  11. Press Yes to save the Excel workbook for your records.

 

Here's an article you can refer to for more details about filing your state W-2s with Quickbooks Desktop Payroll Enhanced. If the same thing happens, check the system requirements for your version of QuickBooks since each version works with specific versions of Microsoft Office. If your version of Microsoft Office isn't compatible, you'll need to upgrade. Once done, follow the steps from Microsoft to repair Microsoft Office. Then go back into QuickBooks and export a report.

 

If the error persists, toggle your Windows UAC settings on and off. This should reset anything blocking the export feature. These steps work for Windows 7, 8, and 10. Here's how:

 

  1. Open the Windows Start menu. Type User Account Control Settings into the search and open User Account Control Settings.
  2. Select and move the slider to Never Notify. Then select OK.
  3. Restart your computer.

 

Go back into QuickBooks and create State W-2 E-file again. Feel free to visit our Tax forms page for more insight s about adding and managing your tax forms.
