Question 1

Employee Obligations (Which Returns YOU Must File)

Accepted Answer

Connecticut has a Convenience of Employer rule, but it does not apply to West Virginia residents. Standard rules apply: if you physically work in Connecticut, file a nonresident Connecticut return and claim the Schedule E credit on your West Virginia return.

Question 2

Employer Obligations (What Your Employer Must Withhold & Remit)

Accepted Answer

Register for withholding and unemployment. Must withhold PFML contributions. Connecticut's COE rule does not apply to Minnesota employees. Unemployment applies to the first $25,000 of wages.

Question 3

Other Paycheck Deductions (Disability, Paid Leave, Unemployment)

Accepted Answer

PFML 0.5%.

Question 4

Remote Work Tax Risk — Convenience of Employer (COE) Rule

Accepted Answer

Connecticut has a reciprocal COE rule — it only applies to residents of states that also have a COE rule. West Virginia does not have a COE rule, so Connecticut's rule does NOT apply to you.
