Short Title
Establishing tax withholding requirements when certain employees work in multiple states.
Minutes Content for Thu, Mar 5, 2020
Chairperson Johnson opened the hearing and recognized Adam Siebers, Assistant Revisor, who provided an overview on HB2722. The bill establishes withholding requirements for certain employees who work in multiple states and determines employer penalties for not complying with these requirements. This bill exempts certain employees who work in multiple states from income tax withholding and reporting requirements unless the earnings occurred in the state of the employee's residence or the employee worked for more than 30 days during the calendar year.
Eric Stafford, Kansas Chamber, testified as a proponent for HB2722 that provides a 30-day safe harbor for employees from personal income tax and withholding obligations who work outside of their home state for temporary periods of employment. The bill would also reduce withholding and reporting requirements on employers whose employees work for less than 30 days in Kansas (Attachment 1).
Testimony was presented by Fred Nicely, Council on State Taxation, as a proponent for HB2722 (Attachment 2).
Chairperson Johnson thanked the conferees for their testimony and closed the hearing for HB2722.
