Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best online payroll service to use?
We all know that having a payroll service can be essential when it comes to managing staffing for your business. But, when you are looking for the best online payroll services, there are so many different options to choose from! The good news is that if you’re not sure which one is right for you, it’s never too late to start your search. We’ll help you select the best service for your needs.
How much does a payroll service cost?
Many businesses are unaware of the complexities involved with payroll, which can involve many different taxes, deductions and benefit payments. When you combine this with the ever-changing requirements for reporting your payroll to state and federal governments, it’s no wonder why so many business owners are turning to outsourcing payroll services to professionals who are experienced in handling these issues.
It’s not unusual for a company’s annual expenditures on outside help to exceed what they would have spent had they conducted their own administration. This is because it’s not just about the money; it’s also about the time that is required to manage the payroll itself. The more detailed and complicated your payroll procedures are, typically the greater amount of time will be spent.
Will employees still get checks?
Maybe! If your employees want physical checks then they will still get them. Most employees opt for direct deposit. The payroll service that you hire is there to take care of the company’s payroll for you. This means that all the employees’ information will be stored by the payroll service, and they’ll take care of handling tax filings along with making sure all payments are made on time. The only thing your company will need to do is send them all of your employee’s information so they can handle everything.
How do you handle my taxes?
There are a few different ways in which payroll services handle taxes for their employees. There are the payroll providers who do not charge any tax to the employee, but instead pay the account holder. These types of companies typically charge expensive fees for services that might not be necessary depending on that company’s business model. The other option is to hire an agency or another third party that will perform all of your employees’ tax duties for you.
What if I get an audit?
Many payroll companies offer audit services to their clients. As the employer, you are obligated to report all taxes, withholdings and other pay related information to the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) every quarter. If you were audited for any part of your taxes or withholdings, the payroll company may pick up these costs if they offer audit coverage.
Some other benefits of employing a payroll service is that all tax deductions are calculated automatically based on percentage rates set by the IRS (e.g., 401K contributions).

“Any small business owners that have had challenges with bookkeeping there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and a song that sounds like a choir of Angels. That’s my experience with Marie. She’s a gift from the universe after 15 years of business and 8+ Bookkeepers/Accountant’s who NEVER gave a rip about my financial picture being the slightest bit accurate. Oh how nice it is to actually know and understand your #’s. EMPOWERMENT is blissful!
Thank you, Marie Stewart!”

“I am not a book keeper, I don’t even play one on TV. Thank goodness for Marie! I am on an HOA board that has let their bookkeeping remain in the 19th century with multiple problems piling up. I tapped Marie at Sound Accounts for help training me to use QuickBooks Online and clean up the mess. She is amazing, patient, a good instructor, knowledgeable and approachable in a way not normally akin to accounting types…WITH HUMOR! I highly recommend Marie. Thank you for everything!”
