The two-day conference, set for March 16–17, 2026, at the Hilton Arlington National Landing Hotel in Arlington, Virginia, focuses on the evolving regulatory and compliance environment that shapes payroll practices nationwide.
The agenda features sessions presented by experts from critical agencies, including the Internal Revenue Service, U.S. Department of Labor, Social Security Administration, U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Government Accountability Office, and federal and state child support enforcement entities.
