RE: TeamStaff, Inc Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2005 Filed December 21, 2005

Dear Mr. Filippelli:

We have reviewed your supplemental response letter dated August 8, 2006 as well as your filing and have the following comments. As noted in our comment letter dated July 11, 2006, we have limited our review to your financial statements and related disclosures and do not intend to expand our review to other portions of your documents.

1. We note your response to prior comment 6 with respect to your RS Staffing acquisition. We note that you decided not to break out the trade name separately and included it instead in the calculation of goodwill, since the trade name is not amortizable. Your accounting does not appear to comply with paragraphs 37 and 39 of SFAS 141. Please note that the accounting for and impairment testing for an intangible asset not subject to amortization, such as your trade name, is different from the accounting for goodwill. Refer to paragraphs 16-17 of SFAS 142. Please revise.

2. Refer to your response to our prior comment number 7. In future filings, enhance your MD&A discussion of the realizability of deferred tax assets by including a description of the factors used to reach such a conclusion similar to that provided in your response.
