Those Who Have/Have Had An Assistant

I just read Tom Copeland's blog post detailing what is involved (tax wise) in hiring an employee.

Those who have/have had an assistant, did you do all the tax work yourself or did you hire a tax professional to assist you? Any tips?
I live in Texas.

I use Intuit for my employees and their payroll as well as all of the employee/employer taxes and tax payments and forms. It makes it easier to keep track of who I owe what to.

I hired a local payroll company. Affordable and well worth the peace of mind
