    Remote work gives you flexibility but your taxes j Remote work gives you flexibility but your taxes just got more complex. If you work in more than one state, your tax “home” is now based on where you work the most during any 3-month stretch not where you live or where your employer is based. That means your state taxes and withholdings could change, and you might even owe taxes in more than one state if you're not careful. Here’s what to do: - Keep track of which states you’re working in - Let your HR or payroll team know if your location changes - Check in with a bookkeeper or tax pro to avoid paying twice or missing a filing The new tax rules around multi-state filing and tax “home” changes can affect both employees and independent contractors. Independent contractors handle their own tax filings, so it's up to them to report income correctly. Remote work equals freedom. But it also means staying on top of the tax stuff. Follow for more tax tips made simple. . . . #Taxes #RemoteWork #BusinessBookkeeping #BusinessAccounting #Bookkeeping #Accounting #SmallBusiness #aireconsultants
