Resolution

 NOTE: If you have an employee that is working in multiple states you will need to follow the instructions in How do I handle an employee that works in multiple states? 

For an employee who has moved to a new state

  1. Activate the new state in PR, Taxes, Activate States
  2. PR, Employees, Maintain Employees, create the NEW employee record and assign the new state in the SWT state and SUI/SDI fields.
  3. Select the 'Status' button and enter the filing status for both Federal and State for your new employee
  4. SAVE
  5. Inactivate the old employee
  6. Process payroll as usual for the employee in the new state

 NOTE: The Enhanced Tax Reporting feature includes an option to merge employees with the same SSN# into one W-2 file. When merging employee records the address, name, punctuation, and capitalization has to be the same for all records being merged. One Federal copy of the W-2 will be printed and one state copy for each state that the employee earned wages.
