Payroll services cover paying your people accurately and on time, calculating and depositing the taxes that go with it, and filing the federal and state returns those payments generate.
Calculating each employee's gross pay, withholding the correct taxes, and paying the net amount on schedule.
Withheld tax is not yours to hold — it must be deposited with the IRS and state agencies on a fixed schedule, and late deposits attract penalties quickly.
It also generates a year-round filing calendar: quarterly federal returns, state returns, and W-2 forms for employees after year end.
We run the whole cycle, not just the payment:
Payroll Setup: Registering you as an employer federally and with your state, and configuring pay schedules, deductions and benefits.
Pay Run Processing: Calculating gross-to-net for salaried and hourly staff, including overtime, bonuses and reimbursements, with direct deposit or cheque.
Tax Deposits: Withholding income tax, Social Security and Medicare, and depositing them on your required schedule so nothing falls late.
Quarterly and Annual Filings: Form 941 each quarter, Form 940 annually for federal unemployment, and the equivalent state returns.
Year-End Forms: Preparing and distributing W-2s to employees and 1099-NEC forms to contractors, and filing the copies the agencies require.
Penalties Are Avoidable: Most payroll penalties come from missed deposit deadlines rather than miscalculated pay. A managed schedule removes that risk.
Rules Change: Withholding tables, wage bases and state requirements are revised regularly. Keeping current is our job rather than yours.
Classification Done Properly: Getting employee versus contractor wrong is expensive to unwind. We assess it before it becomes a problem.
Confidentiality: Salary information stays outside your office, which small teams often prefer.
Getting payroll running and keeping it that way:
We register you as an employer where needed and collect employee details, pay rates and schedules.
Each pay period you send hours and any changes. We process the run and confirm the totals with you before payment.
Staff are paid, taxes are deposited on schedule, and your quarterly and year-end filings are made on time.
Common questions about running payroll in the United States.
It turns on how much control you have over how the work is done, not on what the agreement is called. Employees receive a W-2 and have tax withheld; contractors receive a 1099-NEC and handle their own. Treating an employee as a contractor can result in back taxes and penalties, so it is worth confirming rather than assuming.
Yes. An owner working in their own S Corporation must be paid reasonable compensation through payroll, with the associated withholding and filings. It is one of the obligations that comes with the S Corporation election, and one that is frequently overlooked.
Yes. Each state where you have employees generally requires its own registration, withholding and unemployment insurance filings. We set up and maintain each one, which matters increasingly now that remote staff often live somewhere other than the business.
The IRS assigns you a deposit schedule — commonly monthly or semi-weekly — based on your past payroll tax liability, and it can change from year to year. Missing a deposit date is one of the fastest ways to incur a penalty, which is why we manage the calendar rather than leaving it to memory.
W-2s must reach employees near the end of January following the tax year, with copies filed with the Social Security Administration by the same point. The same timing applies to 1099-NEC forms for contractors. We prepare and distribute both.
Address it sooner rather than later — payroll penalties compound, and unpaid withheld tax is treated more seriously than most other liabilities. We can bring the missing returns and deposits up to date and help you deal with the resulting notices.
