Residency and employment exception

Hi everyone,

 

This question in the bottom half of this email is from Jessica Brubaker as MUS Legal.  Please reply all so Jessica and Laurie receives the responses.

We recently had a question about the employment exception, specifically, whether it applies to individuals who are living in Montana but employed by companies that are located in other states and working either by telecommuting or travelling. The language in the exception is “employed full-time in a permanent job in Montana.” How are all of you handling this? Would it make a difference if the person who was telecommuting was paying income tax in Montana?

 

Thanks in advance for your input.
