Hello there, Warlock.
I recognize where you're coming from. I also know that every penny counts when handling a business
Let's get you connected with the appropriate support so you can change the WA PFML rate to the right one. Thus, I recommend contacting our Payroll Support Team for further assistance.
One of our specialists will review your Payroll settings, especially your Washington tax setup. From there, they'll change the total rate from .6% to .8%. After updating the information, the system will automatically adjust the year-to-date tax.
Also, if there are employees' tax amounts, the figures will automatically be deducted from their next check after the adjustments are completed.
Here's how to reach out support team:
- In your company, tap the Help icon in the upper right to display the support window.
- Choose the Assistant tab and enter a brief description of your concern in the Type something bar.
- Press the Get help from a human link to see more options.
- In the How would you like to connect with us? section, choose Chat to initiate a conversation and Callback to speak with an agent.
They're available from Monday to Friday, 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM PT (QBO Payroll Core). For Premium and Elite payroll customers, you can our payroll specialists any time and any day.
