Out of state Employees?
Are you paying out of state payroll taxes for resident employees not in your state? Are they moving to your state of business or no longer with you?
You MUST notify the state.
Once you start filing payroll tax returns in a state, you CANNOT just stop because you no longer have an employee in that state.
If you stop filing returns, many states will just assume the employee still works for you. Thus sending you a tax bill with penalties and interest based upon your former employees wages in the prior year. When you no longer have an employee in a state, you must file a Notice of Discontinuance.
You can usually get this Form on the applicable state website, or if you need help, contact us at QBO.
