Outsourced payroll, handled end to end
Payroll is the one part of running a business where a small mistake gets expensive fast — a missed deposit, a wrong withholding, an employee in a new state you didn’t register in. CPA CloudBooks takes it off your plate entirely. We set up your payroll, run it on your schedule, file and pay every tax, and keep pace as you hire, give raises, add benefits, or bring on people in new states.
Because we’re a full accounting firm, your payroll doesn’t live on an island. It ties directly into your monthly books and your tax planning, so your labor costs are always accurate and your quarterly and year-end filings line up with no cleanup.

Frequently asked questions
How much do payroll services cost?
It depends on how many employees and contractors you pay, your pay frequency, and how many states you run payroll in. We quote a flat monthly fee (often a base plus a small per-person amount) so it’s predictable. Call (425) 606-0777 for a no-obligation quote.
Do you file and pay the payroll taxes for me?
Yes. Full-service payroll means we calculate, file, and deposit your federal, state, and local payroll taxes every period, and prepare year-end W-2s and 1099s — so you’re never chasing a deadline or a notice.
Can you handle employees in multiple states?
Yes. We register you in new states, set up correct withholding and unemployment, and manage compliance as you hire remote employees across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and beyond.
We use contractors, not employees — can you still help?
Absolutely. We track contractor payments throughout the year and file your 1099-NEC forms at year end, with the same accuracy as W-2 payroll.
Can you take over payroll from our current provider?
Yes, and it’s smoother than most owners expect. We migrate your employees and history, verify prior filings so nothing is missed, and run your next payroll without disruption.
