Why It Matters in Pecos

Paying Crews Who Work on Both Sides of the Line

Payroll in Pecos has a few wrinkles most towns don’t. Employees often work 12-hour shifts, so overtime is routine. Some live in other towns or states and come in for a hitch, and some jobs are on New Mexico leases, where state income tax withholding can apply even though Texas has none.

There is also the steady local payroll that keeps the town running: the hospital, schools, county offices, the detention center and the shops and restaurants around town and along I-20. Whatever the mix, the deposits and reports are due on the same calendar.

Overtime and Long Shifts

Hourly workers paid overtime correctly on long rotations and odd schedules.

Out-of-State Work

Withholding set up for New Mexico when your people work there, so you are not catching up later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions Pecos employers ask about payroll.

Do I withhold state income tax for Texas employees?

No. Texas has no state income tax. You do pay state unemployment tax to the Texas Workforce Commission. For 2026 the taxable wage base is $9,000 per employee, and most new employers start at 2.7%. We file the quarterly reports and payments for you.

Some of my crew works in New Mexico. Does that change payroll?

It can. New Mexico has an income tax, and wages earned for work done there may require New Mexico withholding and an employer registration. We review where your people actually work and set up withholding only where it is required.

Can I pay drivers as contractors?

Sometimes, but the answer depends on how much control you have over the work, who owns the truck and how they are paid, not on what the agreement says. Misclassification brings back taxes and penalties, so we help you sort out each role before the first check.

We hire for a job and let people go when it ends. Can you keep up?

Yes. New hires get set up with the right forms before their first paycheck, and final checks and records are handled when they leave, so quarterly reports and W-2s stay accurate.

How much does payroll cost?

Pricing depends on your entity type, transaction volume, and which services you need. We'll give you a flat quote after a short call, so there are no surprise invoices. Most business owners find the tax savings cover the fee.
