Users of the QB Payroll function are really screwed since there is no way out. Well, no way out as long as you use their payroll function. I resolved that some years ago by moving my payroll to ADP, which is far better anyway. ADP can also provide for workers comp insurance payable along with your regular payroll so there are no surprises or large make up payments due at the end of the term. They can also include 401k if you provide that. 

Bottom line is, ditch QB payroll and switch to ADP, or any other independent payroll service. You'll be happy having done so, and will have one less thing tied to Intuit. 

Best!
