[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Surepayroll doesn't do household payroll the right way if they think you need to submit quarterly tax filings even if you don't have an employee. That's the way a business needs to do it using form 941. Household employers should use form 1040-es to submit quarterly taxes and then schedule h with their personal tax return. No need to submit quarterly if you don't have workers as a household employer. Stay away from surepayroll and go with a household payroll company like GTM Payroll Services or Homework.[/quote]

Surepayroll does file exactly as described, so they're doing it correctly. The quarterly return I'm talking about is the fr-900q and UI/PFL filings with DC.

The problem is, and maybe the other services do this better, when you're ready to cancel the service Surepayroll is ZERO help. Your options are to cancel and you're dead to them (they'll return any unsubmitted taxes, won't file a final quarterly return, or prepare a w2 and schedule H at the end of the year) or you can "cancel" but continue to pay their monthly fee until the end of the year so they'll file the quarterly paperwork (you really only need the final quarter you paid people in, but they just dutifully file one so long as you're paying them) and prepare the W2 and schedule H. Even then, they don't indicate the last return filed with the city is the final one or give you any guidance about how to notify the district that you no longer have employees.

I used Surepayroll for five years without issue, but was really unimpressed with the termination process. But I'm no longer going to client so I guess they don't much care.[/quote]
