Who this is for

Existing Kay Accounting clients
If we already handle your Form 2290 filing, your accounting, or your taxes, we already have the business context payroll needs.
What to expect
Payroll calculated using current IRS withholding tables: federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare and FUTA.
Your federal payroll tax filings (Form 941) prepared by a firm that holds its own IRS e-file credentials for this exact filing.
Records of every pay period and every payment, kept for you rather than left in a spreadsheet.
A direct line to the people running it, since this is a newer service line for us and not yet a self-serve product.
