Quick answer

Payroll Compliance & Worker Classification Review is a flat-fee, one-time health check of your W-2/1099 classifications, tax setup, and filing history, ending in a written summary of what's right, what's at risk, and what needs fixing — before an agency flags it.

A payroll compliance review is a health check, not a fix — we go through how your workers are classified, how your payroll taxes are configured, and what’s actually been filed, and tell you plainly what’s right, what’s at risk, and what needs to change.

What’s included

  • Worker classification review (W-2 employee vs. 1099 contractor) against actual working relationships, not just how they’re labeled
  • Federal and state tax setup verification — rates, jurisdictions, and exemptions
  • A check of filing history against what should have been filed
  • A written summary of findings, ranked by how urgent they are

Common problems we fix

  • Contractors who should legally be classified as employees
  • State tax registrations missing for where employees actually work
  • Exempt vs. non-exempt status set up incorrectly
  • Filing gaps that went unnoticed for one or more quarters

How it works

We request read access to your payroll and filing history, review it against current federal and state rules, and walk you through the findings on a call — plain language, no jargon, with a clear next step for anything that needs fixing.

Frequently asked questions

Why does worker classification matter so much?

Misclassifying an employee as a 1099 contractor (or vice versa) is one of the most commonly penalized payroll mistakes — it affects tax withholding, unemployment insurance, and potential back-pay liability. Getting it reviewed before an agency flags it is far cheaper than fixing it after.

Do you handle the fix if you find a problem?

Yes. The review identifies what's wrong; if you want us to correct the classification, tax setup, or catch up missed filings, that becomes a separate, scoped project so you know the cost upfront.
