Hi,

I hope to get some help from this community. I am very new to payrolls and need help.

My client is Sole P. running a small business, same principle/same service at 2 different locations. I have gotten EIN# + EDD# to set up payrolls for him, but am now confused whether or not to set up 2 separate payroll accounts for 2 different locations under SAME EIN# + EDD# (only 1 EIN# & 1 EDD# been issued by IRS/State), OR to set up just 1 payroll account using the main address location?

If I was to set up 2 payrolls accounts under SAME EIN#/EDD#, will that be confused IRS/state when come to reporting quarterly payrolls?

Please advice. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance :-)

Why go to the administrative hassle of having two payroll bank accounts for a small business?

The bookkeeping staff is more likely to get confused then the IRS or state.

I agree with TheTinCook. There is no need to manage separate payroll for each location. Just make sure your withholding all of the proper taxes for whatever location they may be in (if it is in multiple states).
