Overview:
Understanding how to manage employees in 2 or more states can be confusing. Managing payroll across multiple states is no longer optional – it’s a compliance risk.
When employees live in one state, work in another, or travel across state lines, employers must navigate a complex web of tax laws, withholding rules, and Department of Labor requirements. At the center of it all is tax nexus – the key factor that determines where and how your organization is liable.
From telecommuting employees to multi-state travellers, even small missteps in determining nexus, residency, or withholding can lead to penalties, audits, and compliance gaps.
This webinar breaks down the complexities of multi-state payroll and tax nexus, helping you understand how to determine proper taxation, apply state-specific rules, and stay compliant in 2026.

· Telecommuting and how & why it creates tax nexus and employer tax liability
