What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, All Team Franchise Corporation (ATFC) provides several payroll tax services to its franchisees ('USER'). ATFC prepares all direct payroll costs on behalf of the franchisee related to wages paid, making payments directly to the entitled entities. However, the franchisee is responsible for any penalties due to their own actions or inactions.
ATFC also provides a report of any amounts required for garnishment or wage withholding for temporary personnel. The franchisee is then responsible for entering garnishments into the software program and making the required payments to the proper authority. To facilitate tax filings, the franchisee must execute IRS Form 2848, granting ATFC the authority to file state and federal payroll taxes on their behalf. ATFC will prepare payroll tax deposits and quarterly tax reports for all federal and state jurisdictions and file these with the appropriate taxing authority.
Annually, ATFC will provide the franchisee with a statement of wages earned, taxes, and other amounts withheld for each temporary personnel employee (and administrative employees if the franchisee elects to have ATFC provide payroll services for them). The W2s will be prepared and sent in bulk to the franchisee for distribution to their employees. The franchisee is responsible for ensuring adequate funds are available in their account for ATFC to make the tax payments; any shortage of funds will be considered a material default under the agreement. The franchisee is responsible for paying ATFC's costs and expenses for providing these services.
