For States with simple taxation, clients may prefer to set up the GNIS Jurisdiction code at the State level that is in the format of XX-000-0000 where XX is the State Numeric code. This simplifies the set up for every employee to eliminate the set up of a full GNIS code with the format of State-County-City (XX-111-2222222).\\

For States with local taxation such as County Tax, City Tax, School Tax, Head Tax etc, the full GNIS code must be defined at the employees’ work location and home address (IEAS & IEPI) in order to calculate these taxes correctly with the County-City portion of the GNIS code.\\

The STE (Symmetry Tax Engine) reserves the GNIS code ‘-000-0000’ County-City portion for Federal tax calculations using the Federal GNIS Code 00-000-000. Therefore if the State GNIS code is XX-000-0000, this may cause the STE to incorrectly combine Federal and State wages during its tax calculations. With this configuration, there is a known issue with the STE incorrectly applying the 401K / 457 maximum earnings limit for high earners. This has also been an issue with the calculation of Oregon Transit Tax. To resolve this issue, Symmetry requires UPCALC to pass a fully specified GNIS code for State tax calculation.\\

To assist clients with this issue, UPCALC has been enhanced with the ability to pass the STE a ‘default’ tax jurisdiction. The default jurisdiction must be a fully specified GNIS code defined in IDGV per State Registration. It is suggested the default jurisdiction be the head office location or a location where the majority of employees work. This allows clients to continue using the base state GNIS code of XX-000-0000 in the IEAS, IEPI and IPPH records and requires less set up changes. \\

Alternatively, clients may prefer to specify the full GNIS code format of State-County-City (XX-111-2222222) on all IEPI / IEAS / IPPH screens. With this set up there is no need to set up the default IDGV entry with the full GNIS code for each State. This method would require either SQL scripts or manual intervention by the client to update each employee’s record with the GNIS Tax Jurisdiction. Changing the tax jurisdiction on employee records mid year would cause a new year to date record to be created for the employees.
