5. To check if payroll was received by Intuit: Confirmation of payroll receipt is sent via confirmation report after transmission and the insertion of the payroll liability check in the bank register. The liability check and paychecks should have green lightning bolts in the upper left corner of the checks. If the liability check or paychecks have green lightning bolts, your payroll was sent successfully. Note: Individual financial institution policies determine the exact time direct deposits are posted. Intuit cannot guarantee that direct deposit funds will be available in bank accounts of employees by the paycheck date. Advise your employees to check with their banks to find out when funds are posted. See When do direct deposits post? for more information. Looking for QuickBooks Support? Dial 1-855-441-4417
