How much does self-employed payroll cost?
Self-employed payroll from PayNortheast is $50 per month.
Do I have to sign in to run my payroll?
No. With Auto-Pay, we automatically run your payroll every pay period, so you never have to sign in. If anything changes, just let us know.
I haven’t paid myself through payroll this year. Can you help?
Yes. We can run catch-up payrolls at the end of the year so your wages and payroll taxes are recorded before your W-2 is prepared. Your accountant can confirm the amounts.
Can you handle health insurance premiums for an S corp owner?
Yes. If your S corp pays your health insurance premiums, we enter them in payroll as an S corp shareholder health insurance deduction and report them on your W-2. We don’t sell insurance; we handle the payroll side, and your accountant can confirm the details.
Does a sole proprietor need payroll?
Generally, sole proprietors and single-member LLCs that haven’t elected S corp tax treatment don’t pay themselves through payroll. Once you hire an employee, or if your business is taxed as an S corp, you need payroll. Your accountant can confirm what applies to your business, whether you’re on Long Island, elsewhere in New York or in New Jersey.
What happens to my data if I switch self-employed payroll providers?
When you switch to PayNortheast, we migrate all of your data for you at no cost. You don’t have to do any of the work.
