I am happy to inform you that we have a new CPP in our chapter: Lauren Bunny, CPP with Phelps Dunbar, LLP. Lauren is also our chapter Public Relations Coordinator for the New Orleans area. We are all very proud and excited about Lauren's accomplishments. Lauren plans to participate by teaching in a Study Group in the near future.

Submit your nominations as soon as possible. Ballots will be issued and final votes submitted at our September - National Payroll Week Celebration Dinner.

Our Objectives

    The objectives of the  S.E. Louisiana Chapter are to keep the payroll professionals informed of the impact of changes in tax laws (federal, state and local), to provide the opportunity to network with other payroll professionals, and interchange experiences, ideas and interests by finding answers to difficult questions and problems encountered by the payroll professionals.

The S. E. Louisiana Chapter accomplishes its objectives by sponsoring:

·         Bimonthly seminars, the third Thursday of the month on the latest payroll topics by guest speakers from Federal and States agencies, attorneys, accountants and others knowledgeable in payroll compliance matters.

·         Annual Year-End Workshop on legislation affective year-end issues and changes for the upcoming year.
