Ties payroll totals to the ledger and the year-end forms. The company has a deadline, no one free to own it, and wants a person who has done the same job before. It moves goods for customers, so the data is operational and updated daily. The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in Alberta, so this one is for residents there. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. ## What you deliver - Reconcile annual payroll to the general ledger and prepare the W-2 and 1099 check lists. - A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer - One round of edits after the company's review is included - The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed ## How the work runs - Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared - Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback - Last day: final version and handover note **Duration:** 2 to 3 weeks.
