All of my employees are remote W2 employees with health benefits, etc. Over time, employees have moved to different states and now I am paying having to pay unemployment and payroll taxes in multiple states. I use Quickbooks for payroll which automatically calculates and pays the taxes so that part is not difficult but it increases our accounting expenses having to deal with multiple states and I am wondering if there is a better way to pay people?
I do not want to pay them as contractors so that is not an option. I’ve looked at PEO’s in the past but they seem to be more expensive than just doing it the way we are already doing it.
Is there anything else out there I should be looking at to make payroll and taxes more efficient?
Though there are payroll providers that help inform and guide the process better than others. I would say a conversation with Gusto is worthwhile. I’ve had clients fed up with Intuit’s lack of support and antiquated interface put the gears in motion to move over.
