Details

To facilitate the choice of correct withholding taxes, this method returns recommended taxes in the form of a comma-delimited string. The developer supplies an employee’s work and home ZIP Codes, allowing TaxControls to make determinations based on resident/nonresident rules and reciprocal agreements.

Note: Not all jurisdictions can be accurately dilineated using ZIP Codes. The taxes suggested by this method represent a “best-guess” selection based on the available facts and rules. When muliple jurisdictions overlap ZIP Code boundaries, all possible tax names are returned.
