I need information in setting up my employees with W2. if this a service you do and if you do do you withold taxes and can we do direct payment as well?

 I’m more than happy to guide you in setting up your employees, @igarcia1.

A W-2 is a tax form that shows the amount of tax withheld from your paycheck for years and used to file your federal tax and state tax. For more information about this, check this article out: W-2 General form and filing information.

Then, set up your employees through the Payroll menu. Let me guide you how.

1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
2. Go to the Payroll menu and select Employees.
3. Click Add an employee.
4. Enter your employee details and click Done.

Here’s an article you read for the complete guidelines: Add or edit an employee in Online Payroll.

And yes, you can do a direct payment or direct deposit in paying your employees. Check out this article for the complete process: Set up direct deposit for employees.

Let me also add these resources that you can use for future reference:

• Pay and file your payroll taxes online
• Invite employees to see pay stubs and W-2s online
