Why do I need to register with a given agency or state?

When Middesk receives a registration order from a customer, our team will work to register your business with whichever agencies that are included in your order. Often, we will also set up agency payroll portal accounts that will enable you and your payroll provider to file your payroll taxes online. To learn more about specific states, please consult the State by State Resource section of the Help Center.

However, Middesk is not an advisor, and cannot tell a business where or when they should be registered. Typically, a business’s payroll provider will request that a certain registration be completed, and from there will refer the customer to Middesk - who will do the legwork of the registration. 

Generally, if you are ever unsure about what registrations are required, or would like more context as to why you’re registering in a given state or municipality, Middesk recommends that customers reach out to their payroll provider. As the party responsible for requesting registrations, your payroll provider should be able to provide more information.
