Who knew you could have so much fun taking about tax and remote
employees? Tax attorney, Jamie Szal explains the various tax
implications for employers with remote employees during and after
the pandemic. During the pandemic, states treated business with
remote employees differently for tax purposes. For example, some
states took a hard line approach and announced the
pandemic-necessitated remote working created nexus for the employer
for all purposes, while some states announced they would not
enforce nexus against out of state companies by virtue of the
pandemic-related in-state presence of telecommuting employees.
If your business has employees working outside of the state in
which the company does business, it is important to determine what
state the employee is actually working in, as there may be
additional tax considerations. Some states have allowed a waiver
period, and some did not. Some states have allowed a transition
period, and some have not. In addition to identifying where
the businesses employees were located during the pandemic,
businesses should also take proactive steps to determine if it will
allow its employees to continue working remotely going forward
relative to tax and other compliance issues.
TAKEAWAYS
Now is the time to engage in strategic planning
business considerations. Businesses who have not already don't so
need to determine:
1. Where the employees have actually been working throughout the
pandemic.
2. Will the business continue to allow a remote or hybrid
workforce.
3. Where the businesses' employees will be working in September
2021.
4. What are the going-forward tax implications of the work
environment.
5. Will the business hire remote employees.
