Description

New York incorporated the MTC's (Multistate Tax Commission) guidelines for internet activities protected by PL 86-272. Protected activities include merely soliciting orders for tangible personal property via the internet. Not included is engaging with customers or potential customers through a company's website or computer. Recently, the American Catalog Mailers Association challenged the validity of the new regulations. The New York Supreme Court upheld the revised rules. However, it denied retroactive application of the new regulations (American Catalog Mailers Ass'n v. Dep't of Taxation and Finance, No. 903320-24 (N.Y. Sup. Ct., Apr. 28, 2025)).

Pennsylvania, known for having one of the highest corporate tax rates in the U.S.—9.9%—approved a tax reduction that will reduce this tax rate, beginning in 2023, over a period of years to a remarkable 4.99% in 2031. State and local tax rules are constantly changing. SALT specialists working with multistate companies and individuals need to stay abreast of the latest developments.

Listen as our panel of astute state and local tax experts reviews the latest revisions to tax requirements in key states in the Northeast.
