State Tax Withholding

Select File - Setup Options - State Tax Withholding



This option allows you to set up for the State Tax Withholding Rate.  Some states require withholding of income tax on certain payments to non-residents.  You may also refer to the Owner/Customer file under ‘Tax Help’ for more information.  For tax rates, please contact your state for more information.


Non-resident state tax withheld setup.  Some states (i.e. California) require withholding of state tax on certain payments to non-residents.  The state tax to be withheld is calculated by:


State Tax Withheld Amount =(State Tax Withholding Rate) X (Gross Income)


State tax withheld would apply to payments to vendors, and revenue income paid to owners and customers. 


This option allows you to set up a State Tax Withholding Rate for the state of the Operator, not the Vendor, Owner or Customer's State of Residence.  The State Tax to be withheld is computed at TAX WITHHOLDING RATE multiplied times Gross Income.  However, withholding is not required if payment to a payee is less than the State Tax Withholding limit in a calendar year.  Check with your State concerning the State Tax Withholding limit.  States vary regarding State Tax limit; therefore the Operator is responsible for State Tax limit. 

       

Enter State Tax Withholding Rate like 7.00 = 7 percent


State tax rate is computed at tax withholding rate X gross income.  Owners and vendors may be subject to state tax withholding for a non-resident.  Withhold state tax is located in the Owner and Vendor file for each owner or vendor.  If the field, 'Withhold State Tax', is marked 'Y', the state tax withholding amount will be computed for this owner or vendor and stored in the field year to date state tax withheld in their Master file. 

NOTES ON VENDOR STATE TAX WITHHOLD
