Terms and disclaimer

By using FirstHire, you agree that the site is provided for general information and planning only.

Not advice

FirstHire is not a law firm, CPA firm, payroll bureau, or insurance agency. Calculator outputs, checklists, and guides are estimates and summaries of published public sources. They are not tax advice, legal advice, insurance advice, or a quote. Confirm figures and obligations with your accountant, a licensed attorney, your state agencies, and your insurance carrier before you hire, classify a worker, buy coverage, or file a return.

Accuracy

Rates and rules change. We cite sources and the dates they were checked, but we do not warrant that every figure remains current. Editable calculator fields exist so you can replace defaults with the numbers on your official notices and quotes.

No professional relationship

Use of this website does not create an attorney-client, accountant-client, or fiduciary relationship.

Limitation

The site is provided “as is.” To the extent permitted by law, FirstHire is not liable for decisions you make based on these estimates, including hiring, classification, or purchasing decisions.

Affiliate links

Some links are affiliate links, as described on the affiliate disclosure page.
