That is an easy mistake to make if you are not very careful when
directing the QIF importer to create new accounts. 

What is probably the easiest solution is to edit the new account(s) that
did not properly appear under "Current Assets" or whatever to reside
under the correct parent account.  Then the next import should show the
existing account(s) as either pre-selected or optional matches for new
transactions.

Have fun.  :)
