  • The Wage Garnishment is a huge effect - all it takes is to upload the document, enter name, SSN and submit!
  • Ease of uploading Tax notices for the ADP team to handle is a positive. However, it should be more timely response and resolution, although it depends on the state response time, as this affects tax implications and interests accrual.

  • ADP has been a great tool for tax payments.
  • ADP reports are easy to access when balancing.
  • Being able to enter a payment request manually in ADP smart compliance is easy and has helped to avoid overpayment for supplemental payrolls processed with a duplicate seq number from our payroll software.
