About » California Employment Law Vacation
working while on vacation?
I am going to visit family this summer in California and Arizona. I was thinking about temp employment while I am vacationing.
Does anyone know how it works with IRS and state income laws? I am not going though a temp agency as I was just going to see if I could contact a company when I got there to check out the scene.
Has anybody out there done the same and if so , what was your experience?
Thanks in advance!
The IRS doesn't care where you work, the federal government's reach crosses all state borders. When you fill out your federal taxes, they consider all revenue regardless of what state it was earned in. The company you work for will require you to fill out the proper state and federal forms when they hire you so they can report your income. Unless you work under the table, there is no way around that.
The only real difference is since you live out of state, you will only be generating about three months of Cali income. That might not be enough to require you to pay California state income tax (especially since you will not be in a high wage job). That being said, California doesn't care that you live in another state. If you generated income in California you are subject to pay their state income tax.
