[Hidden-tech] Employee question

[Andrew Bellak]

We have explored this issue.

Outsourcing payroll to a Paychex or ADP MAY include some liability 
protection for errors.  If the 3rd party vendor messes up and UNDERPAYS 
or pays late, they should pay the government fines.

Do it on your own and you're on the hook.

We got the numbers from our accountant and plan to use Excel and do it 
ourselves.

Quickbooks has a payroll module.

Regards,
Andrew
