    ​​​​​​​State Taxation of Passthrough Entities and the Federal Deduction
    ​​​​​​​As a result of the SALT deduction limitation imposed as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, a number of states have enacted Pass-Through Entity (PTE) taxes, joining a handful of other jurisdictions that impose tax on flow-through entities rather than their owners.

    Nonresident Income Allocation and Resident Credits

    As a result of COVID, employees have fled their traditional workplaces, individuals are rethinking where they want to live, and employers have started rethinking their office-based workplace models. All of these changes impact a state’s authority to impose tax on an individual’s income.

We will also examine differing state rules for determining whether a resident will get a credit for taxes paid to other jurisdictions and how these rules can lead to double taxation.

    An Update of State Tax Issues for Corporations

    Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of people have been telecommuting from their home state or another location. Allowing employees to telecommute from states in which they do not normally work can create a host of issues for companies, but the two biggest tax issues relate to nexus and income apportionment. Will the presence of an employee working from home create income tax nexus for the employer in that state? What if the business relied on the protection of P.L. 86-272 prior to the pandemic? How should a business apportion and allocate income among multiple states?

    This webinar looks at how corporations can navigate the complex maze of state allocation and apportionment rules, particularly as many businesses have established a wider multistate footprint during and after the pandemic.

    Topics Covered

    • The two biggest tax issues related to nexus and income apportionment when telecommuting from home state or another location
    • How corporations can navigate the complex maze of state allocation
    • Apportionment rules

    Learning Objectives

    • Identify how to resolve the two biggest tax issues related to nexus and income apportionment when telecommuting from home state or another location
    • Recognize how corporations can navigate the complex maze of state allocation and apportionment rules
