Welcome to the September 2018 issues of the Aprio State & Local Tax (SALT) Newsletter
With dozens of different taxes imposed by the 50 states (and thousands of local jurisdictions), we recognize how challenging it is to keep up with current issues and developments. This newsletter is designed to provide insights on developments in state and local taxes including new legislation, regulations, rulings and cases addressing issues such as corporate and personal income taxes, sales and use taxes, nexus, franchise/net worth taxes, etc.
This issue of the newsletter contains articles addressing (i) new substantive guidance in Illinois and South Carolina regarding the application of economic sales tax nexus rules in light of the Wayfair decision, (ii) New Jersey limitations on the calculation of a resident state tax credit on income earned from a pass-through entity operating a multi-state business, (iii) an Oregon court decision finding that banks without physical presence have income tax nexus and the implications for unitary return filings, (iv) Maine’s determination that a resident individual owner of a pass-through entity is not entitled to an income tax credit for out-of-state business taxes paid by the entity, and (v) Illinois’ new regulation regarding the creation of nexus arising from attending trade shows, and the establishment of a safe harbor.
