I'm setting up payroll for a new company in Colorado. One of the items that automatically comes back is the Unemployment Tax Surcharge rate. Quickbooks allows me to enter 0.22% or 0%, values from the tax tables. However, my state tax registration form shows that my UI Tax surcharge rate is .82%. I cannot edit this item in QB to make it work. Any ideas of the appropriate workaround? My thought is to create a new payroll item, set it up the same way as the default tax surcharge, then set the default tax surcharge to 0%. Unfortunately, the Tax Tracking Type of the new item does not match the Tax Tracking Type of the default surcharge. Will that be a problem? Thanks for any help.
