We have a client who is getting ready to go-live with payroll. They have a multi-state payroll with many unions and many certified projects. They have just told me that they have several employees who live in one state (e.g. WI), but work in a different state (e.g. IL) and there is reciprocity between the states. So the employee can choose which state that want for State Income tax withholding. Which isn’t a big deal, it can be done with the Work Location. Here’s the kicker….The unemployment tax has to be go to the state worked, regardless of the state the employee chooses for withholding. In my example, the employee lives in WI and want state income tax withholding in WI, but works in IL so the system needs to calculate IL SUTA tax. Any ideas on how to achieve this?
