Paychex Payroll and Tax Compliance
Simplify payroll and stay compliant so you can focus on ministry
Many ministries face complex payroll requirements and evolving tax regulations. Managing payroll reporting and compliance can take time and create risk when processes are manual or dependent on a single individual.
Through Wespath’s partnership with Paychex, plan sponsors have access to an affordable payroll and tax compliance solution built for United Methodist organizations. Paychex also supports integration with Wespath retirement plans, helping streamline contribution processing.

Outsourcing payroll and tax compliance can help reduce administrative burden while supporting accuracy and regulatory compliance.
Organizations that move payroll to a dedicated provider can:
