In my previous post, I meant to say I am now using Enterprise 2006 (which
uses the old 2005 941). I was previously using Enterprise 2005 (which used
the correct 2006 941).

Sorry for the confusion.

What QB payroll service are you subscribed to?
Have you done a payroll update in v2006?

I've never used a payroll service, either in Enterprise 2005 or 2006, so
nothing has changed in that respect.

I'm pretty sure the only time the 941 form gets updated
is when you download a payroll update. The 941 that
ships with QB is the current one at time of release. So
for QB 2005 that would be 941 2004 tax year, and for QB 2006
that would be 941 2005 tax year (since Intuit releases
QB in the 4th quarter of the year prior to the named year).

I suspect you did a one-time update in QB 2005 after the
2006 tax year tables were released by Intuit, which would
give you the 2006 941; and that you haven't done an update
with QB 2006, or somehow did one last year before the
2006 tax table update was made available (about 12/15/2005).

Confused? ;)

Regardless, I think it has been posted here often that the
IRS isn't all that picky about the form year as long as the
format hasn't changed substantially, and that you can just
cross-out "2005" and write-in "2006". Maybe one of the CPAs
here can confirm my recollection...

Just do the one time tax update which is free and use the correct form. If
not, down load the correct PDF form and fill it out.
