In 2014 Congress passed the Stephen Beck Jr. Achieving a Better Life Experience Act of 2014 which included a provision calling for the IRS to set up a Professional Employer Organizations (PEO) legislation and certification program.  As part of the certification the PEO must post and maintain a Professional Employer Organization Surety Bond to guarantee the payment of federal employment taxes and must be in an amount that is equal to the greater of five percent of the Professional Employer Organization’s liability under section 3511 during the calendar year preceding the surety bond period, but not more that $1,000,000, but not less than minimum $50,000.

PEO Surety Bonds must be renewed each year on March 31.
