Nebraska
Employee Obligations (Which Returns YOU Must File)
Nebraska has a Convenience of Employer rule that affects Montana residents. If your employer is in Nebraska and you work remotely from Montana, Nebraska may still tax your paycheck. File a nonresident Nebraska return plus your Montana return and claim the Schedule V credit. Consider consulting a CPA.
Employer Obligations (What Your Employer Must Withhold & Remit)
Nebraska's Convenience of Employer rule may require withholding Nebraska tax even if the Montana employee works 100% remotely. Register for withholding and unemployment. The COE rule is limited by the 7-day threshold — if the Minnesota employee never travels to Nebraska, no withholding is required. Unemployment is 1.25% on the first $9,000 of wages.
Remote Work Tax Risk — Convenience of Employer (COE) Rule
Nebraska has a full COE rule, but it was modified in 2025 — it only applies if you are physically present in Nebraska for more than 7 days in a year. If you work 100% remotely from Montana and never travel to Nebraska, you are not affected.
