Yes. Your quoted tax preparation fee includes both your federal and California state income tax returns. We also prepare returns for other states, with the exception of New York and Massachusetts.

If you receive an additional tax document after your return has been e-filed, your tax return can be amended to include the new information. Send us the additional document and we can prepare an amended return for you.

We provide payroll services for businesses in all industries with up to 50 employees.

Payroll can be processed weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly, depending on the needs of your business.

Payroll hours should be submitted at least three days before the check date. For direct deposit payroll, hours should be submitted at least four business days before the employees' deposit date.

Occasional glitches happen! We will do our best to work around a late submission and make sure your employees are paid on time. If there isn't enough processing time available for direct deposit, you may need to pay employees by check for that payroll period.

We will need the employee's completed Form W-4 and pay rate before processing their first paycheck. New employee paperwork can be submitted along with payroll hours if necessary, but we recommend sending it as soon as it is completed so the employee is already set up and ready for their first payroll.

Contact us as soon as possible when an employee needs a final paycheck. We make every effort to process off-schedule final payroll as quickly as possible. A pay stub can generally be provided within 24 hours so that you can issue the employee's final check. Final-pay requirements vary depending on the circumstances, so please contact us promptly when an employee is leaving.

Yes. If you receive a garnishment order, please send us all pages of the notice as soon as possible so we can set up the required deduction in payroll. Each pay period, we will calculate the appropriate amount to withhold and provide you with the information needed to remit the payment to the appropriate agency.
