State & Local Tax (SALT)
Helping you navigate the complexity of state and local taxation
SALT and compliance strategies may be a principal concern for your business and can be one of the more challenging aspects of taxation. States have become increasingly aggressive at asserting that any type of in-state business activity will create state tax reporting responsibilities, or nexus, for an out-of-state business. States are also becoming more sophisticated in the identification and enforcement of state tax non-compliance.
State tax legislation lacks uniformity across states and can be ambiguous or silent on key reporting and compliance concerns. Business activities that pose no concern in one state may trigger a tax-reporting requirement in another state. This is confusing to taxpayers and furthers the idea that a state filing requirement may be indisputable and that planning opportunities are unavailable.
