PR Employee Changed Address

SOLVED

I have an employee that moved from one state to another and forgot to tell us.  We have only processed 1 payroll for this year under the wrong state and i would like to some how "reverse" out the State taxes from that state and put them into the correct state.

I thought I could just do a negative in the wrong state and a positive in the correct state and all would be good.  But....In the payroll master file for the employee, there is a state tax that has all their wages and subject to info.  Do I need to just manually adjust that info and keep an audit trail of it?  Or is there some other way of taking care of it? 

I would like to get it taken care of before I have to send in my end of the month state withholding deposits.

Thank you in advance.

    State taxes as a general rule need to calculate in the work state.  Therefore if the emplyoyee is "working from home" you may need to void and reprocess the check after changing the work state on the time. If only the employee's resident location changed, and place of work did not it may not be necessary to do anything other than change the resident state on the setup of the employee unless there is a reciprocal tax agreement between the two states (resident state/work state)
