Indiana Payroll

Did you know that Indiana residents, including full-time, part-time, temporary, or seasonal workers, are subject to withholding on all income earned, no matter where the service was performed?

Indiana Income Tax Withholding

Indiana requires employers to withhold income tax from employee's compensation and remit withheld amounts to the Department of Revenue.

Employers are required to withhold from wages regardless of the number of employees or the place wage payments are made.

Reciprocal agreements with Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin provide that Indiana employers need not withhold Indiana tax from wages paid to employees who reside in these states, but employers are urged to withhold the appropriate tax applicable to the employees' state of legal residence.
