Multi-State Payroll in 2024

Many companies who do business in more than one State do not understand how to determine which State they must pay taxes to. They also do not understand that each State has different laws regarding residents and non-residents. This is very difficult to keep up with and to know what taxes to withhold. As you get ready for 2024, this session will give you guidelines on what factors determine which tax the employer must withhold. It will explain the differences of residents and non-residents and how to properly report withholding for both these types of employees. You’ll find out whether your business has Business Nexus and what that means to you. No employer wants to face huge fines and penalties for failing to follow State laws and regulations so this session will help you know if you are compliant and what to change if you are not.

Besides State withholding there are also local taxes in certain areas. Some States have local taxes for larger cities and other have them for every locality. You are responsible for making sure you are properly withholding for these localities and you have to know where and when to pay these taxes. You will be given helpful websites to find out detailed information on withholding for these taxes and where to pay them to.
