What San Francisco businesses get caught out by

San Francisco sets its own minimum wage

San Francisco has its own minimum wage ordinance, separate from California’s, and the rate adjusts every July. If you employ people here, or people who split hours between San Francisco and another city, the rate you’re paying isn’t a single number.

The city has its own annual tax return

San Francisco businesses register with the city and file an annual business registration and tax return, separate from state and federal. It’s straightforward until it’s missed, and it’s a common gap for businesses that started elsewhere and grew into the city.

Health care spending rules for employers

San Francisco’s Health Care Security Ordinance requires covered employers to spend a set amount on employee health care and report it to the city each year. It’s a payroll item to track all year, not just at year end.

Questions from San Francisco businesses

No. We’re in Campbell, in the South Bay. We work with San Francisco businesses remotely, so most of the work happens online whichever city you’re in.

Yes. San Francisco sets its own rate separately from the state, and it changes every July. If you employ people here, or people who work across San Francisco and another city, that’s something we track as part of running your payroll.

It affects your filings more than your bookkeeping. San Francisco has its own annual business registration and tax return on top of state and federal, and we’ll make sure it’s on the calendar rather than discovered late.

It depends on where the work is actually performed, and it’s one of the most common things employers get wrong when they expand across city lines. We’ll work through it with you rather than leaving you to guess.

Yes. We reconcile what’s already been filed before anything moves across, so nothing double-counts at year end. Mid-year switches are routine.

San Francisco is one of several cities we work in across the Bay Area.
