What You Get When You Join Our Service

At Breedlove & Associates, we take pride in eliminating all the work and worry for you by taking care of everything you need as a household employer.  Specifically, we handle:

• Tax Preparation & Direct Filing.  We handle all state and federal tax preparation requirements.  We also direct file the returns with each of the tax agencies and remit the employee and employer taxes on your behalf.  Lastly, you'll receive full support anytime you need it -- with unlimited access to our team of tax experts at no extra charge.
• HR & Labor Law Guidance.  Most families eventually have questions about things like overtime, unemployment, disability, workers' compensation, health insurance, vacation, paid sick leave, etc.  In this area, an ounce of prevention is definitely worth a pound of cure.  Big, expensive problems can be easily avoided with a little expert guidance.  That's our job -- and, again, we don't charge extra for it.
• Payroll Management.  Based on your employee's compensation and elections on Form W-4, we calculate tax withholdings and process payroll each payperiod.

Within payroll management, we provide two service options --Direct Deposit and Assisted Payroll.  Here's how each option works:

DIRECT DEPOSIT.  With this option, you don't have to write checks and your employee's pay is automatically deposited into her bank account each payday.  You and your employee receive detailed paystubs reflecting precise wages and withholdings for the current period as well as year-to-date totals.  If there is a variance in pay, you simply notify us and we re-calculate the tax withholdings and process the new amount.  Otherwise, your payroll is on cruise control -- you don't have to do anything except make sure your bank account is funded.

ASSISTED PAYROLL.  This option supports families who want to process and track payroll on their own.  We provide assistance with our proprietary Quarterly Payroll Statement -- a customized spreadsheet which details your employee's Gross Wages, Tax Withholdings, and Net Pay for each payperiod.  You write the paychecks and keep track of any variances.  At the end of the quarter, we circle back to make sure we capture any and all pay variances you had during the quarter (accurate wage data is critical so we can ensure accurate tax returns).

Service Fees

    Option 1: Tax Preparation & Direct Filing + HR & Labor Law Guidance + DIRECT DEPOSIT = $180 per quarter.

OR

   Option 2: Tax Preparation & Direct Filing + HR & Labor Law Guidance + ASSISTED PAYROLL = $145 per quarter.

• If choosing DIRECT DEPOSIT, please note that there is an additional fee of $30 per quarter if you elect to pay your employee Weekly (There is no additional charge for Bi-Weekly, Semi-Monthly or Monthly pay frequencies).
• Fees are for one employee.  For additional employees working concurrently, there is a quarterly fee of $50 per additional employee. There is no fee to change employees.
