Payroll Tax Services Tailored to Your Business Needs

Payroll tax compliance is a critical, yet complex task for small to mid-sized businesses. With limited resources, many rely on a single individual or small team to manage this overwhelming responsibility.

Frequent changes in payroll tax laws add to the complexity, increasing the risk of costly errors and penalties.

At Axcet HR Solutions, a certified PEO, we specialize in providing comprehensive payroll tax services. Our experts ensure your business stays compliant across all tax jurisdictions, freeing you to focus on growth with confidence.

Our expert payroll team monitors tax legislation, guides you through necessary actions, and helps you claim available credits, ensuring your payroll tax obligations are met with the highest standards of accuracy.

Filing payroll tax forms is complex, but at Axcet HR Solutions, we simplify the process. Our comprehensive payroll tax services include managing federal, state and local filings—Forms 940 and 941, state withholding, unemployment tax returns and more.

With our deep expertise and proven track record, Axcet ensures that your payroll taxes are filed accurately and on time, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to focus on growing your business.

Testament to our ability to flawlessly execute payroll tax filings is our longevity as a CPEO. Axcet was among the first 10% of professional employer organizations in the nation, and the only Kansas City PEO, to receive the CPEO designation, which was established under the IRS in 2014. Clients rely on us for payroll tax administration, one of the core HR services companies expect from a CPEO.

We are small, and as such, rarely in the eye of a payroll services company. Axcet works with our multiple entities. I want to focus on our business, and they focus on HR for me. Because we are small, I really don't want to have a 'personal' disagreement about PTO or vacation pay, so I set the guidelines, and Axcet manages them, which I love.

We really appreciate the work you are doing for our tradeshow and exhibit display company. The fun part is we get at least an email a day, phone calls every day, and we see the commercials on tv for something that you have taken care of for us last year. (And, of course, it is in the capable IRS hands now.)

Thanks for making this so easy for us.

Turning our admin, payroll, benefits, 401K, workers' compensation, etc., over to Axcet HR has been one of the best decisions that we've ever made: that was back in 2001! We've had 21 great years with Axcet and hope to have 21 more! Axcet has saved us time and LOTS of money but most of all, Axcet HR has allowed us to focus on running our business...because we know, day in, and day out that Axcet has our back!

Axcet has helped us find affordable benefits for our 15 employees. Being a small firm, it was hard to find various health insurance options. It is nice knowing that we have someone with HR knowledge. It is good to get another persons opinion when we are having employee issues.

I burned through a couple of "payroll companies" before I found Axcet. I have yet to encounter anyone at this company that hasn't been friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. Calls are returned amazingly fast and problems are solved without having to make any other calls. This is truly a great company and stellar business partner!

With all the changing rules and regulations we face as employers, I was always afraid of a "Gotcha!" moment. We've been with Axcet over 10 years now and I sleep well at night knowing all our HR is done right. They make it all so easy. Our payroll is accurate, we are legal and OSHA compliant in every area, and my employees love their benefits. Our team at Axcet is more than just a good vendor, they are a great partner!

We had tried two other PEOs. Both of which we left after the first year. The level of service that we were accustomed to with Axcet was not there, so we came back to Axcet truly because of the excellent service we always received. Everyone at Axcet would make us feel like we were their only client, like they were sitting there waiting for our call, always friendly and ready to help.

We started working with Axcet in 2018 and they have dramatically increased our internal productivity. We used to spend hours on payroll, HR, benefits, taxes, etc. each week and that is no longer the case. Prior to Axcet, we worked with two other payroll companies and is was a complete mess. Working with Axcet is like having a robust and efficient internal HR department. They have solutions to every problem and we no longer feel lost trying to navigate the payroll landscape. If you want to streamline your business and get out of the HR and payroll weeds, then go with Axcet.
