Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about certified payroll reporting and CertifiedPayrollPro.

What is certified payroll?
Certified payroll is a weekly payroll report (WH-347 form) required on federally funded construction projects under the Davis-Bacon Act. It certifies that workers are paid the correct prevailing wage rates set by the Department of Labor.
What is the WH-347 form?
The WH-347 is the standard form used to submit certified payroll reports to the Department of Labor. It includes worker names, classifications, hours worked, pay rates, deductions, and net pay for each worker on a prevailing wage project.
What are Davis-Bacon prevailing wages?
Davis-Bacon prevailing wages are minimum hourly pay rates (including fringe benefits) set by the U.S. Department of Labor for workers on federally funded construction projects. Rates vary by job classification, location (state and county), and type of construction.
How much does CertifiedPayrollPro cost?
CertifiedPayrollPro starts at $49/month (Starter plan). The Pro plan is $99/month. The monthly price is the whole price: there are no per-report fees and no setup fee. Every account includes 3 free reports, and a first plan starts with 14 free days.
Do I need to connect a payroll provider to use CertifiedPayrollPro?
No. CertifiedPayrollPro works as a standalone application. You can enter payroll data by hand, with Lydia, our built-in AI assistant, to explain the rules. If you run payroll in ADP, Paychex, Gusto, QuickBooks or eight other providers, import the CSV they export.
Does CertifiedPayrollPro support state-specific certified payroll forms?
Yes. In addition to the federal WH-347, CertifiedPayrollPro produces California's A-1-131 and DIR eCPR XML, the Illinois Certified Transcript of Payroll portal upload file, the New York certified payroll XML for NYSDOL's electronic submission system, New Jersey's MW-562 payroll certification, and the AASHTOWare Project payroll XML that state DOTs import for federal-aid highway work, with more states in development. You file each in your own agency account. State filings are available on the Pro and Enterprise plans.
Is CertifiedPayrollPro available in Spanish?
Partly. The certification attestation a signer must read before certifying is available in Spanish, and Lydia, the built-in compliance assistant, responds in Spanish. A full Spanish interface is in development. PDF reports are always generated in English per government requirements.

Stop overpaying for certified payroll

Most providers charge $1,000+/month and hide pricing behind sales calls. We publish ours because we're proud of it.
