Contractor payments and 2307 preparation with evidence
Keep contractors separate from employees, apply reviewed ATC and withholding profiles, and generate preparation copies from an approved contractor-payment ledger.
A controlled contractor withholding workflow
The system supports the recordkeeping and calculation process; the employer remains responsible for correct worker classification and current tax treatment.
Contractor master
Maintain a non-employee record bound to the correct registered payer entity.
Reviewed tax profile
Use effective-dated ATC and EWT rates from reviewed guidance rather than hidden hard-coding.
Maker-checker payment
Snapshot gross invoice, withholding base, rate, EWT, deductions and net payable.
2307 preparation
Aggregate the approved ledger by recognition date and generate a hashed PDF preparation copy.
Recognition and payment dates stay distinct
EWT recognition is stored separately from the cash payment date so quarterly certificate preparation is not driven accidentally by settlement timing alone.
Connect contractor payments to the source ledger
Replace manual certificate reconstruction with reviewed, reproducible payment evidence.
