Alaska one of the few places without a state-level sales tax. There are however many independent cities and boroughs which administer and collect their own taxes. As many states across the country seek to reap the tax dollars now available due to the Wayfair decision, the localities in Alaska felt left out in the cold. At its core, the decision in Wayfair requires states imposing an economic nexus standard to do so in a way which does not place an undue burden on the seller. Unlike every other state which has enacted economic nexus rules, Alaska lacks any central body that could make local tax ..read more

According to the October 29 Worcester Business Journal, a group of legislators and policy advocates is looking for ways to modernize Massachusetts state tax code, potentially taxing digital goods and services like music downloads or Spotify.

Showdown on the Prairie – Kansas AG Invalidates DOR Economic Nexus Pronouncement

In a startling development that appears intertwined with local Kansas politics, Attorney General Derek Schmidt issued an opinion that attempts to place a temporary halt to the Department of Revenue’s (DOR) plan to extend its sales tax compliance requirements to remote sellers as of October 1, 2019 – leaving taxpayers in a state of limbo. For sellers that have robust sales tax automation tools in place, however, the uncertainty created by these circumstances is far less problematic. Back on August 1, 2019, the Kansas DOR published Notice 19-04. In short, the notice signaled the DOR’s intention ..read more

Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker recently signed the 2020 Fiscal Year Budget which includes statutory language establishing a new economic nexus rule effective October 1, 2019.
