Common questions
About employee tax services
Why is multi-state withholding so complicated?+
Every state has its own rules for residency, reciprocity, and remote workers. Misconfigured withholding triggers employee tax surprises and employer-side notices — a specialist sets it up correctly from day one.
How are stock options and RSUs taxed on payroll?+
RSU vesting and NSO exercises are W-2 wages subject to withholding. ISOs have separate AMT implications. Employee tax services handle the payroll-side reporting and coordinate with your tax preparer.
