[Browse the store](/toolkits) Who it is for Owners, office managers and bookkeepers who run payroll for employees working in New York, from the first hire to the year-end forms. Not the right fit if Your employees work outside New York: get that state's kit, or the 2027 Employer Compliance Bundle for several states. Not a payroll service, and not a legal review of your policies. Why it is different - Built only from our New York data files, checked November 2026 against 22 official pages, among them New York State Department of Labor; NYSDOL: Current 2026 Employer Contribution Rate; NYS Department of Taxation and Finance: Form IT-2104; Official page; NYS Department of Labor: Posting requirements under NYS Labor Law; Senator Ramos Champions E-Verify Bill, New York State Senate press release (2020); S6812 (2019), bill text; New York State: minimum wage for 2027, plus NCSL and ADP (a vetted secondary source, marked in the kit) where no official page could be read. - 1 item the official pages didn't state is left out of the checklist and put on a short look-up list with the page to check, never guessed. - The workbook recalculates with zero formula errors and dates the New York new-hire steps for you. What is inside - **Start here.** How to use the kit, the 18 confirmed New York rules at a glance and the 1 items to confirm, each with the official page to check: state copies of W-2s and 1099s (NYS Tax Department: Instructions for Form NYS-45 (1/26)). - **New York 2027 checklist.** Eight steps from unemployment tax registration to year-end filing, each confirmed rule with its source link and check date, from New York State Department of Labor, New York New Hire Online Reporting Center, New York State Workers' Compensation Board. What it confirms: open a state unemployment tax account: NYSDOL: register with form NYS-100 online (business and household employers) or on paper; get a federal EIN first (P809); taxable wage base for 2027: Not announced yet when we checked in November 2026; taxable wage base for 2026 (the latest published): $17,600 per employee in 2026; new employer tax rate: 4.1% for a new employer; quarterly wage reports and payments: NYSDOL: NYS-45 returns are due April 30, July 31, October 31 and January 31; state income tax withholding: State income tax applies; report each new hire to the state: Within 20 calendar days from the hiring date; e-Verify for private employers: No state rule requires it; minimum wage now (2026): $16.00 an hour; minimum wage change in 2027: $16.00 an hour; no scheduled change in our data; tipped employees: Cash wage of at least $10.70 an hour in 2027, with tips making up the rest; paid sick leave: New York State Paid Sick Leave (Labor Law 196-b); meal breaks for adults: At least 30 minutes off between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. for a shift of more than 6 hours that spans that window (60 minutes in factories); rest breaks for adults: no state rule; No state rest-break requirement: The state isn't in the US DOL table of state paid rest-period rules (revised January 1, 2023), which says states not listed don't require paid rest periods; breaks for workers under 18: NYSDOL's Youth Worker Information Hub tells young workers that 6 or more hours in a row earns at least one 30-minute break; workers' compensation insurance: Virtually all employers must cover their employees (WCL sections 2 and 3); final pay when you let someone go: No later than the payday on which the next pay would have been due; final pay when an employee quits: No later than the payday on which the next pay would have been due. - **2027 deadline calendar.** 10 dates our New York files state: 4 quarterly due dates from New York State Department of Labor; 1 state W-2 and 1099 filing dates from New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, with weekend dates flagged and a month-by-month planner for your own. - **New hire and pay change checklist.** One page per hire, with the report to New York New Hire Online Reporting Center (new hires reported in 20 days) and the I-9 steps, and one per pay change against the $16.00 minimum wage. - **New York compliance workbook (Excel).** The New York dates in a deadline tracker with days left and status, a new-hire sheet that dates each step from the start date (new hires reported in 20 days), and a pay-change sheet that flags any rate below the 2027 floor.
