Considerations when cancelling your account: 

• Please keep in mind - Homebase Payroll billing is one month in arrears. This means that your final bill for Homebase Payroll services will draw from your company bank account on the first business day of the month following your account termination. For example, if you cancel your service on October 15, your final bill for service will post on November 1
• Seasonal businesses may wish to keep their payroll service active even in the off season. Cancelling your payroll service will cease Homebase's payroll filings.* In the period of inactivity for your business, it will be your responsibility to maintain and complete any payroll tax filings required by the state or IRS. Keeping your account active allows Homebase to continue to file these on your behalf automatically - keeping your business in good standing with payroll tax agencies. 
• Homebase charges a $200 fee to file payroll taxes after an account is terminated. If you select for Homebase to continue filing any payroll taxes on your behalf after your account is cancelled, you'll be billed this $200 fee upon submission of the questionnaire.
  • If this fee collection is not successful, Homebase will not file or remit any future payroll taxes on your behalf until this is resolved. If we do not collect the fee successfully, Homebase will not file and will refund any unpaid payroll taxes to your company bank account. All tax filings will be your responsibility outside of Homebase. 

* If you select for Homebase to file through the end of the calendar year, Homebase will do so for a $200 fee. However, if your business does not reactivate until later in the following calendar year, any payroll filing requirements in the new year will be your responsibility until you reinstate your payroll service.
