FIRE2022, if you are the only employee, you can probably do it yourself. I do my own payroll for two employees. And I've walked a few people through setting up doing their own. Probably your best bet is to meet with a knowledgable accountant to get you set up, so that you know what taxes you have to withhold and in what amount, which you pay as an employer, the dates all are due etc. etc. For my small size operation, I need only file all returns quarterly. It takes me about five minutes to do the biweekly payroll. I have the quarterly returns down to two hours a quarter, because I know what I need to track for each pay period and do it accordingly. If you are averse to number crunching, have someone else do it for you; but if you're not, it's not all that complicated. Good luck.
