What We Handle

Complete Payroll Compliance.

Payroll isn't just cutting checks. It's compliance, filings, withholdings, and year-end reporting — all of which carry real penalties when done wrong.

Full Payroll Processing
We process payroll for every pay period — weekly, biweekly, semi-monthly, or monthly. Direct deposit to your employees' accounts.
Federal, State & Local Tax Withholdings
All employee withholdings calculated accurately — federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, state, and local taxes.
Quarterly Payroll Tax Filings (Form 941)
We file your 941 every quarter — on time, accurately. No missed deadlines, no penalties.
SUTA (State Unemployment) Filings
State unemployment tax filings handled properly for Louisiana and any other states where your employees work.
W-2 Preparation & Distribution
Year-end W-2s for all employees, filed with the SSA and delivered to your team by the January 31st deadline.
1099 Preparation
Year-end 1099-NEC forms for contractors paid $600 or more. Filed with the IRS and provided to recipients.
New Hire Reporting
State new hire reporting submitted within required timeframes — a legal requirement in Louisiana and all other states.
Workers' Comp Integration Support
We coordinate with your workers' comp provider to ensure payroll data is accurate for your audit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your Questions, Answered.

We recommend submitting payroll information at least 3 business days before your pay date to allow for processing and direct deposit settlement. We'll establish a clear submission schedule during onboarding.
Yes. If you have employees in multiple states, we'll handle the multi-state withholding requirements. Different states have different withholding rules, unemployment rates, and filing requirements — we manage all of it.
Yes. If your business uses only independent contractors, we can manage your 1099-NEC preparation and filing at year-end. This is available as a standalone service or add-on to your bookkeeping retainer.
Yes. If you are an S-Corp shareholder who performs services for the business, the IRS requires you to pay yourself a “reasonable salary” through W-2 payroll. Failing to do this is a common audit trigger. We'll help you determine an appropriate salary during your tax planning consultation.
