"If you pay your household employment taxes with your business employment taxes, you must report your household employment taxes with those other employment taxes on Form 941, Employer's QUARTERLY Federal Tax Return, Form 944, Employer's ANNUAL Federal Tax Return, or Form 943, Employer's Annual Federal Tax Return for Agricultural Employees, and on Form 940, Employer's Annual Federal Unemployment (FUTA) Tax Return."
You can delete your Schedule H from your return as long as your payroll company has filed all required federal returns associated with your domestic employee. The purpose of the Schedule H is to ensure the payroll taxes are paid and the income is reported to the IRS. Since filing Forms 941, 940, and W-2 accomplishes this goal you are not required to also file a Schedule H.
