Key Notes
- Hiring an employee in another state means you’re “doing business” there, and that comes with legal steps.
- You may need a business license and to file as a foreign entity with that state’s Secretary of State.
- Set up both state withholding and unemployment insurance accounts—even in states with no income tax.
- Each state (and sometimes cities) has unique employment laws, from sick leave to wage rules.
- Your payroll system must be updated to reflect accurate state data.
- Reporting new hires is often mandatory within 20 days.
- Workers’ compensation is required in nearly every state for even one employee.
- Affordable Bookkeeping and Payroll Services offers expert support for all these steps.
