Question

With 7shifts payroll, can Employers opt out from automatic tax deductions when submitting payrolls?

Answer

⚠️ If incorrect or incomplete Tax IDs are entered during setup, the taxes may be refunded to the employer at the end of the quarter, requiring them to remit payment directly to the agency.

⚠️ 7shifts cannot prevent tax withdrawals once payroll is submitted. Taxes are calculated based on employee W-4 details and the employer’s tax setup.

No, at this time Employers cannot opt out of automatic tax withdrawals when submitting payroll. The following will always be withdrawn from the bank account:

Employee taxes (for both direct deposit and manual checks)
Employer taxes (for both direct deposit and manual checks)
Direct deposit employee payments
