Some people think they can outsmart the IRS by forming new companies. I think that just makes the IRS mad. http://fleetowner.com/management/news/trucking-owner-unpaid-taxes-0923
Make sure that your payroll taxes are built into your budget. Don’t use that money and the employees withholding money as short-term financing. That gets you into situations like the one in the article. I don’t know that the subject of the article did this but it’s not impossible. One advantage of outsourcing your payroll is that you can’t spend the money due to the IRS. Some companies don’t like that becuase they want the use of the money until the taxes are paid but that can put you in a bind if another expense comes up. Be safe!
