State & local tax,
and the states you forgot.

One remote hire can create obligations in a state nobody has visited.

Economic nexus thresholds, market-based sourcing and remote work have between them made multi-state exposure the most common unpleasant surprise in a private company’s books. A single salesperson working from Connecticut, a warehousing contract in New Jersey, or a marketplace threshold crossed in the third quarter can trigger income tax, payroll and sales tax filings at once.

We start with a nexus study built from data rather than recollection: payroll registers, sales by ship-to state, contractor locations, property and inventory. The output is a state-by-state table: what triggered the obligation, which taxes it touches, and what year it began.

Then we price the two routes honestly. Registering prospectively is cheap and leaves the back years open. A voluntary disclosure agreement costs more to run but caps the look-back, usually abates penalties, and closes the exposure for good. Which one is right depends on the size of the number, and we give you the number first.

For pass-through entities, state PTE elections are worth real money and are easy to miss or to make badly. We model them every year rather than assuming last year’s answer still holds.
