FAQ
Outsourced Payroll Services in California
What's the difference between payroll software and outsourced payroll?
Software gives you tools; outsourced payroll gives you a person who runs payroll, files taxes, and handles problems. Most growing businesses cross over to outsourcing between 10 and 50 employees.
Who is liable for payroll tax errors?
The business is, by default — even when using a third party. A reputable outsourced payroll provider assumes filing liability in writing and resolves notices directly with the agency.
