In recent years, remote work has transitioned from a niche option to a mainstream work mode, supercharged by the COVID-19 pandemic. This shift has changed where we work and how states collect taxes, introducing new challenges for employers and employees.
Enter the “convenience of the employer” rule, a regulation that, while aiming to simplify tax issues, has introduced the potential for double taxation for remote workers. Let’s discuss this rule’s impact and what it means for the modern workplace.
If you work with a professional employer organization (PEO), it’s a good idea to regularly reevaluate the relationship. Growing businesses can reach a point where the costs of working with a PEO outweigh the benefits, and some companies expanding into new states may also run into limitations on what PEOs can do there—eliminating the PEO’s original value proposition.
If you’re dissatisfied with your PEO or your business circumstances have changed, it may be time to leave.
Business privilege and mercantile tax (BPM) is a tax assessed on the gross receipts of specific types of businesses, commonly retailers and wholesalers. Originating from the Pennsylvania Local Tax Enabling Act of 1965, this tax serves as compensation for businesses availing local governmental services, such as public safety measures.
BPM has undergone multiple changes since 1965. By 1988, the Pennsylvania Local Tax Reform Commission labeled it as a “nuisance tax,” primarily due to inadequacies in the legislative framework and vagueness surrounding the tax base.
