Multi-State Taxation<\/h3>\n
Northern Arizona University taxes employees based on the state in which their work is actually performed. If you are a Northern Arizona University employee and work in a state other than Arizona, you may have a tax liability to the state in which you work.<\/p>\n
Due to the complexity of compliance and additional costs associated with out of state work, generally employees must live and work from the state of Arizona. \u00a0Special advance approvals are required for an NAU employee to be hired or allowed to work from another state other than Arizona. \u00a0Employees cannot work from another state for their own convenience, though certain business-justified or mission critical situations may be allowed with advance approval. See Procedures for departments with out of state employees<\/a>.<\/p>\n
If you will be working from out state, please contact Maryalice Minnick, our out of state employee specialist, via email at Maryalice.Minnick@nau.edu<\/a> or by phone at (928) 523-9401.<\/p>\n\n
