To be successful with Toast Payroll and Team Management, register for all applicable tax accounts and supply the tax information to Toast Payroll.

Where to Find Copies of Tax Filings Processed in Toast Payroll

Quarterly tax packages are found within the Toast Payroll system under Reports > Tax Filing. These reports are typically available the third full week of the month following each quarter-end. Toast Payroll will only generate tax packages for quarters in which a customer was actively processing payroll within the Toast Payroll system.


Note: Toast Payroll may not be able to complete and/or submit tax filings where the Toast Payroll system reflects missing, erroneous, or incomplete information in a customer's account. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that they have provided Toast Payroll & Team Management with all requisite tax information in a timely manner. Copies of tax return submissions do not guarantee that a return was submitted to or accepted by an applicable agency.

If you do not know your assigned PIN, contact Idaho Unemployment at (208) 947-1055 or (800) 448-2977.
