Four steps, then it mostly runs itself.

  1. 01

    Set up correctly

    Your parent is usually the employer; you manage everything on their behalf. We get the entity right from day one.

  2. 02

    Run payroll in minutes

    Log hours, we calculate every withholding, and generate a clean pay stub each pay period.

  3. 03

    Capture the deduction

    We organize the year's payments into a Caregiving Payment Summary — the record your tax advisor needs to work out the deduction, if you qualify.

  4. 04

    Stay compliant

    W-2s, Schedule H, and deadline reminders, handled — so you're never left wondering.

Common questions

Usually your parent. You arrange and pay for care, but legally your parent is typically the household employer. KinPayroll sets it up correctly so the EIN, W-2, and Schedule H land where they belong. Situations vary — confirm yours with a tax advisor.

Set it up right — in about the time it takes to write one cash check.

Start free, see exactly where you stand, and capture the deduction you may have been missing.
