W-2 for multiple states.

SOLVED

I have an employee that moved to another state this year.  He is still working remotely for us.

As far as his W-2 during this period, how do I report both state earnings and state withholding?

    Hi Barbara,

    I would recommend setting up a second employee record for the new state, this would make it easier to combine both records at year end when doing W2s.  The only drawback to this approach is for things that have relatively low limits (FUTA or SUI for example) you may need to make manual adjustments to keep the second record from over-withholding / contributing for the remainder of the year.

    Thank you.
