Asked before signing up
Does a calculated pay run mean employees have been paid?
No. Calculating, publishing and paying are separate steps. Keep the payment confirmation.
Can a quarterly remitter review monthly totals?
Yes. Monthly totals give detail inside the quarter. The quarter still sets what is owed.
What do I do with an assessment finding?
Read the reason, fix the employer or employee fact behind it, then recalculate.
Can I use oh my payroll on its own?
Yes. Each product works alone and has its own price.
Where is my data stored?
In Canada, in Montréal.
How do I get access?
We are preparing for launch. Join the waitlist, choose payroll, and we will write when access opens.
