Re: Double taxation...
said by jtanner  :TN doesn't have state income tax. But it's an interesting point--what happens when someone lives in Massachusetts and telecommutes to NY? Wouldn't they get taxed twice? Jim I live in Maryland. The company I work for is headquartered in Virginia, though they have offices all over the globe.
Whether or not I commute to one of their offices, I pay my taxes to my home state of Maryland. As it happens though, I rarely work from anywhere other than my home. I've been a full-time telecommuter for over 8 years. |

| How dare you cheat Virginia out of their income tax? 
And what about all the gas you are not using? Doesn't Maryland deserve their massive gas tax too? :D:D
This could get ugly as how many people tele-commute from other states? How many people want to be taxed twice? Or, how about being taxed in every state where your company has a location in?  |

Or, how about being taxed in every state where your company has a location in? I think I'll just take half my salary and donate it to the county and the state so they can build more roads for the traditional commuters. Then I'll take the other half of my salary and spread it around to all the states where the company I work for has offices: California, District of Columbia, Massachusetts, New York (gasp!), North Carolina, Oklahoma, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Virginia. I'll be sure to reserve some for my home state: Maryland.
Too bad there will be nothing left to donate to the other countries where the company I work for has offices: Brazil, Canada, India, Russia, United Kingdom. If there were, I could help provide health care and retirement income for those who live in countries where the government subsidizes those services.
Who needs disposable income anyway? |

| I fear them pressing this issue more. If so I and a lot of people will be hurting.
I vpn into networks in 5 or 6 countries plus ones in almost all 50 states. Just this morning I vpned into Pa. Ny. Nh. RI. Conn. Ne. and Fl. , does this mean under this the whole slew of them have the ability to chase me down for taxes ? If so Ma. where i actually live is gonna be screwed on my taxes.
Greed has no bounds I guess. Start taxing the people who are outsourced to other countries. Because then that will drive up their cost as well and maybe the work will come back to North America.

That was how it worked when I was in the Army. I was stationed in CO, but I paid state income tax to VA.

Maybe this is a ban on telecommuting disguised as a tax? |

| I've been paying into Virginia's coffers from the day I started working and it isn't too bad. Last time I was in FL they just stuck it to the citizens through sales tax. I think it was almost $0.09 on the dollar where I was in central FL.
