DESCRIPTION



Multistate employers know that there payroll people must know the taxation and reporting requirements for every state that the company has employees working. But when just complying with tax withholding, tax codes and deposit schedules in a single state can eat up most up their time and energy, imagine how tough it is for multistate employers. What if the company has employees in 5, 10, 15 or all the 50 states?

Not only payroll personnel for that company would be scrambling to meet varying rules and regulations, but they also run a higher risk of multiplying their penalties in case non-compliance in uncovered.

Also, an employer with employees working in multiple states doesn’t just have taxes to deal with. Now there are also wage and hour laws to contend with! In a different (read: higher) minimum wage? Are the overtime rules different? Would that employee still be exempt?

There are numerous other questions to ask such as: Which state income tax is withheld?  Does it matter if the employee is a resident or a nonresident of the state? Are there any reciprocal agreements in effect that must be taken into consideration? And it’s an endless list!

There’s no shortcut. The only way to determine proper taxation for multiple state employees is by researching and applying the requirements for each state.

This program by payroll expert, Vicki M. Lambert, CPP,uncovers the intricacies and requirements that must be addressed by multistate employers when it comes handling taxation of employees.
