"As the CEO, I still do payroll—it’s very easy with TriNet. It sounds like a huge, burdensome task, but it’s really about 15 minutes every two weeks for me to make sure that our payroll is tight and commissions and expenses are paid."

FAQs

What is my company’s FEIN number?

A federal employer identification number, also known as a federal tax identification number, (FEIN) is used to identify a business entity with the federal government. This number is generated by the Internal Revenue Service.

When will my employees’ Form W-2s be available?

If your employee requests a paper IRS Form W-2, it will be postmarked by the IRS deadline of January 31 each year to ensure compliance with federal law.

If your employee elects to receive their Form W-2 electronically, they will be able to access it online on or before January 31 each year in compliance with federal law. We will notify your employees by email when their electronic Form W-2 is available for access.

What is a Form I-9?

The Form I-9 is used to verify the identity and employment authorization of individuals hired for employment in the U.S. All U.S. employers must properly and timely complete the Form I-9 for each individual they hire for employment in the U.S. before or shortly after they start their first day of employment. This includes citizens and noncitizens. Both employees and employers (or authorized representatives of the employer) must complete the form.
