What information do I need to provide to set up payroll services?
To set up payroll services, you will need to provide several key pieces of information. This includes your business details, such as your Employer Identification Number (EIN) and any state tax IDs. You’ll also need to gather employee information, including their Social Security Numbers (SSNs) and completed tax withholding forms. It’s important to establish a pay schedule, whether it’s weekly, biweekly, or another interval, and provide banking details for direct deposit purposes. If you are switching payroll providers mid-year, you’ll also need to supply existing payroll and tax information to ensure a smooth transition. Having this information ready ensures that payroll services are set up efficiently and accurately.

How do payroll providers ensure tax compliance?
Payroll companies calculate, withhold, and file federal, state, and local taxes on behalf of businesses. Many guarantee tax compliance, meaning they will cover penalties or errors caused by incorrect filings as long as the data provided by the employer is accurate.
