For some people, bank accounts can be a real issue. Whether they simply don’t want their money tied to a bank account or they have had a negative experience with a bank in the past, some people choose not to open a bank account.

Payroll services are something that every employer needs. While there are many payroll service companies out there, you need one that checks all the boxes and provides accurate and reliable services. Payroll services are meant to make your day-to-day operations easier for both you and your employees. When looking for a company to help you out, you need to make sure you are getting the best service possible, while also staying well within your budget. Read on to see what you need to keep in mind while searching for a payroll company you can trust.
First things first, the company you choose to partner with must make your job easier. If your payroll service isn’t providing reliable payroll solutions, then it’s not worth your investment. You need a payroll company that does tax filing, direct deposits, PTO tracking, online access to time clocks, and much more. Everything extra is just icing on the cake. When looking for a payroll service company, you should make sure they manage employee benefits as well. Having a dependable and trustworthy payroll service that offers HR consulting, payroll processing, and employee benefits services will save you time and money.
Let’s face it, there are a lot of payroll companies out there, but not all of them provide comprehensive services and outstanding customer care. You want your payroll outsourcing company to consider your business their business, so you get the level of professionalism, attention to detail, and quality service you would expect from your own payroll or HR department. Being a business owner comes with many responsibilities, including customer service, sales, marketing, and production. Let Payroll Service Solutions take the worry of managing human resources, payroll processing, and employee benefits off your plate so you can focus on getting business done.

There are many benefits to outsourcing your small-business payroll process. Some of these benefits may seem obvious, like having the filing of your business taxes or tracking of your employee time off accruals handled, but there is so much more that a great payroll service provider can offer, and at Payroll Service Solutions, we are here to help! And speaking of benefits, let’s discuss your employee benefits programs. We make it easy for you to offer quality employee benefits without any hassle or time spent searching for a la carte solutions through offerings from multiple companies! Payroll Service Solutions offers workers’ compensation, health insurance, contractors’ insurance, retirement plans, and more to small-business owners every day. Our clients appreciate the seamless integration of workers’ compensation and their payroll that we have created. When payroll time rolls around, we report actual wages to the insurance carriers and offer a pay-as-you-go service. This process is made even simpler when we calculate the premium based only on the true payroll and make payments directly from your account. There is no longer a need for stressful calculations, nor for frantic research every time these payments are due; our friendly and experienced associates are happy to take these chores off of your plate. We also make it easy to offer your employees amazing benefits beyond workers’ compensation. Payroll Service Solutions offers a comprehensive range of retirement benefits, including 401(k) and 403(b), simple IRA, payroll deduct IRA, business-owner planning, and both financial planning and wealth management services. Our group health insurance options provide an accessible way for small-business owners to care for their employees; the options we offer include medical, dental, vision, group life, and disability insurance. Providing your employees with the best benefits can be stressful when you try to do it all on your own. Contact us today to speak with a representative who can help you every step of the way!

Thinking about switching payroll providers? Now is the perfect time! A new year means a fresh start and an easy transition to a new payroll company. Before you switch, however, there are things that you can have lined up to ensure a smooth transition.
Payroll taxes are based on when your employees were paid, not when they worked. That means that if they got paid January 1 (or after) for work they did in the prior December (or before), those wages are reflected in the new year’s books for tax purposes. That being said, take a look at your last pay date of the year, and if it falls in 2021 for whatever reason, make sure that is taken care of with your new payroll company.
When making the transition to a new provider, make sure that, prior to closing the account, you extract important data, such as employee information, payroll reports, and annual tax forms, to keep for records. A lot of times, after an account is closed, it can be difficult to go back and retrieve this information.
When switching payroll companies, you will need important information to gain access to all your payroll tax accounts to ensure a smooth transition. You are going to need your EIN, state employer identification number as well as other payroll tax account numbers, legal business name, and bank account information.
All of this may seem overwhelming, but Payroll Service Solutions is here to help guarantee a smooth transition to our team of experts you can depend on throughout the longevity of your business. Call us today to get started!
If your check date falls on Friday, January 1, 2021 you must decide if you want to move the check date to either December 31, 2020 or keep the check date in January of 2021.
Please be aware of the following should you change your January 1st check date to December 31st:
• Paying employees on December 31, 2020 will cause an extra paycheck in tax year 2020. This check will be included on the 2020 W2.
• This may affect retirement contributions (especially if the contribution is setup to meet maximums).
• This may affect your budget for the year.
• There could be tax consequences for both employees and employers if you add a paycheck to 2020.
• We strongly recommend that you consult with your CPA or tax attorney for guidance on this.
• Payroll Service Solutions will not change the check date unless you request it.
• If you decide to change your check date to December 31st, please request that we hold your end of year processing.
Please let us know when you call in your last scheduled payroll for 2020.
It used to be that direct deposit was a luxury, but now, as it has grown to be the norm, employees have come to expect it. Payroll Service Solutions offers direct deposit services that will keep your employees happy, while also taking a big burden off your plate when it comes to payday details.
Direct deposit is loved for many reasons. For example, it eliminates multiple steps that paper checks require for the funds to be accessible within an account, such as a trip to the bank and a long waiting period. Paper checks can take up to five business days to clear an account, but with direct deposit, funds are directly deposited to the employee’s account through ACH transactions. This means that on payday, employees immediately have access to those funds, without having to wait in a long line at the bank.
Another large perk to using direct deposit is the safety benefits. Generally, paper checks are much riskier because they can be lost, stolen, or fraudulently cashed. When using direct deposit, the money is directly debited from the employer’s account and deposited to the employee’s account so there is no room for theft or fraud.
Switching to an electronic pay system saves everyone involved both time and money. If you’d like to set up direct deposit or talk to us about how we can better your current systems, call Payroll Service Solutions today! We are proud to serve small businesses in the Philadelphia area as well as the entire U.S. with full-service payroll solutions.

On August 8, 2020, President Trump signed a memorandum allowing employees making up to $4,000.00 pretax biweekly to defer paying their portion of Social Security taxes. The tax deferral went into effect on September 1, 2020, and will end on December 31, 2020. At this point and time, the monies deferred will have to be paid back in full. Guidance put out by the IRS on August 28, 2020, suggests that it will have to be paid back in full by April 30, 2021. It will be an additional deduction from the employee’s check. The guidance also suggests that ultimately the employer is responsible for the repayment of these taxes. Payroll Service Solutions is not automatically deferring this tax. If you have an employee who would like to his or her their Social Security tax, contact our office to obtain the necessary paperwork.
This Act allows some flexibility with the way the loan money is used to still receive forgiveness. The key changes are as follows:

Many small businesses and their employees have been impacted by COVID-19. To help small businesses and their workers though this pandemic, the President has authorized the SBA to provide assistance. There are several SBA loan programs including Enhanced Debt Relief and Disaster relief programs to assist businesses during this tough time. The Coronavirus Aid Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act is allocating $350 billion. Also known as the Paycheck Protection Program, it provides 100% federally guaranteed loans to small businesses. Importantly, if all employees are kept on payroll for eight weeks, SBA will forgive the portion of the loans used for payroll, rent, mortgage interest or utilities. Up to 100 % of the loan is forgivable. https://www.sba.gov/funding-programs/loans/paycheck-protection-program#section-header-2 SBA guidelines have not yet been issued on these loans. Once the administration releases more details we will share that information with you. As always, Payroll Service Solutions is here to assist and support you through these challenging times.
Employers must post this notice of employee rights. https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/WHD/posters/FFCRA_Poster_WH1422_Non-Federal.pdf The act reserves the right for the secretary to exclude certain care providers and first responders from the list of eligible employees and to exempt small businesses with fewer than 50 employees from providing paid leave for child care if business viability is jeopardized. We strongly advise that you read through the entire document prior to Wednesday, April 1st so you have an understanding of how the leaves work. You can find the link below. The following are some highlights from the updated guidance.
On Friday, March 27th the President signed the CARES Act. The new law is a $2 trillion economic stimulus package designed to repair the economic damage caused by COVID-19 and provide additional protection to individuals and businesses who may lose income due to the pandemic. While most of the act pertains to direct payments and loans, there are some sections that affect employers. Providing Alternatives to Closure and Layoffs The CARES Act gives employers the following options and benefits, which may allow them to stay open and keep more people employed:
