Leave the most time-consuming aspect of payroll to the pros and avoid fines from the IRS

SurePayroll includes the two most important services any payroll service can offer:

• Paying and filing your federal, state and local payroll taxes on time every time.
• Working with the IRS and other tax agencies on your behalf — if ever needed.

So how many payroll tax responsibilities do we take off your plate? Here's a taste of what you won't have to file when you switch to SurePayroll's online payroll services:

Federal, State and Local Income Taxes
It's your employees' responsibilities to file their year-end taxes, but it's your responsibility to collect the appropriate amounts and forward them to the IRS and other tax agencies at the intervals they specify. We calculate the deductions, withhold the funds and remit payment to the agencies automatically.

Social Security and Medicare Taxes
Not only do you have to deduct and withhold these funds, but you have to match them for W2 employees. And you need to remit payment as often as daily, depending upon your business' liability. We'll take care of everything — including calculating your matching amount.

Federal Unemployment Tax (FUTA)
This tax isn't deducted from your employees' earnings. Rather, it’s due annually to the federal government. We'll file IRS Form 940 on your behalf and make the quarterly payments.

State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) Taxes
Every state unemployment tax is a little different — that's why we have tax specialists dedicated to every state. Like FUTA, this tax is employer-only. Once you receive your SUI tax rate, just let us know so we can remit payment as often as your state requires — or as often as multiple states require, if you hire employees across state lines.

Quarterly and Annual Federal Tax Returns
In addition to paying payroll taxes and various unemployment taxes, you're required to file IRS Form 941 on a quarterly basis, or IRS Form 944 on an annual basis, if your business meets certain low liability standards. We'll determine which is appropriate for your business and file them on time.

You get all of this for free with your SurePayroll account. And we never tack on additional fees for the number of local and state taxes we manage on your behalf.

It's SurePayroll’s business to keep your payroll data safe

What is a payroll service?

The majority of US small business owners spend a few hours per pay period on payroll — calculating payroll, withholding deductions, writing checks and paying and filing various payroll taxes for federal, state and local payroll agencies. And yet, many still receive fines from the IRS and state agencies for incorrectly calculating their payroll taxes.

SurePayroll’s online payroll service does all that for you. Once you enter payroll online or from your iPhone®, you can get back to running your business. The whole process takes a few minutes per pay period. And if you ever need us, an experienced Sales representative or a member of our American Business Award-winning Customer Care team is just a phone call or email away.

SurePayroll's online payroll services takes care of everything after you enter payroll, including:

• Calculating wages and deductions.
• Depositing and filing federal, state and local payroll taxes — with guaranteed timeliness and accuracy.
• Paying your employees by direct deposit and notifying them of payment by email. (Or you can print and distribute checks if you prefer.)
• Providing employees 24/7 online access to their pay stubs, W2s and other payroll information.
• Providing you and your accountant 24/7 online access to payroll reports.
• Providing you customized labor law posters and other resources to help keep you in compliance.
• Sending you calendar reminders of employee events, such as anniversaries and birthdays.
• Working with the IRS and other tax agencies on your behalf, if ever needed.
