TL;DR

  • Payroll taxes are the one area where the IRS moves fast and the penalties stack quickly.
  • Deposit timing, worker classification, and multi-state filings each carry their own risk.
  • CPA oversight means your payroll function connects directly to your tax strategy, not just your calendar.

Most payroll problems do not start with bad intentions. They start with a handoff that nobody owns. The bookkeeper assumes payroll is handled, the CPA sees the numbers after the fact, and the owner trusts the process. Meanwhile a deposit slips, a contractor gets misclassified, or a state registration never gets filed.

Dimov Tax sits between the raw payroll data and the tax return. We manage the filings, review classifications, and keep every deposit on time. When something changes, a new state or a new hire, we catch it before it becomes a penalty notice.

What Our Payroll Tax Services Include

Our payroll tax services cover the full compliance cycle:

Federal Filings & Deposits

Federal deposit monitoring and scheduling, Form 941 quarterly preparation, and Form 940 FUTA filing including credit reduction analysis.

Classification & S-Corp Comp

Worker classification reviews under federal and state standards, plus annual S corporation reasonable compensation analysis.

Year-End Forms & IRS Notices

Year-end W-2 and 1099 coordination, plus direct response to IRS and state payroll tax notices when they arrive.

What Payroll Tax Services Cost

Payroll tax work is priced by scope, not a flat rate, since no two situations carry the same risk. The drivers are how many employees you run and how often you pay them, how many states you file in, whether classification or back-filing needs cleanup, and whether your S-corp compensation needs an annual review.

A single-state employer on a steady payroll sits at one end. A multi-state workforce with contractor questions and unfiled registrations sits at the other. We scope to what your payroll actually requires and quote it directly.

Find the gaps in your payroll tax filings before the IRS does. We will tell you quickly whether anything needs fixing. Confidential, no obligation.

The Payroll Tax Penalty That Follows You Personally

Some payroll tax penalties are just expensive. The trust fund recovery penalty is the one that gets personal: the IRS can assess the unpaid amount against an owner, officer, or bookkeeper individually, even after the business closes. Worker misclassification is the other costly miss: treat a worker as a contractor, have the IRS later call them an employee, and you owe the back payroll taxes plus interest and compounding penalties.

Signs You Need Payroll Tax Help

Most businesses call after something has already gone wrong. Fixing a payroll tax problem after the fact, the back taxes, penalties, interest, and time, consistently costs more than getting it right up front. This is worth a conversation if you:

  • Added employees in a new state
  • Shifted contractors to employees
  • Changed your pay structure
  • Outgrown the payroll setup you started with

Need broader tax planning, entity structure, or help with an IRS notice? That is where our wider advisory work picks up, and most clients start with payroll.
