2012 Connecticut General Statutes
Title 12 - Taxation
Chapter 229 - Income Tax
Section 12-706 - Agreements with other jurisdictions. Employer to furnish statement to employees regarding wage and taxes withheld. Treatment of taxes withheld.
(a) The Commissioner of Revenue Services may enter into agreements with the tax officers of other states, which require income tax to be withheld from the payment of wages and salaries, so as to govern the amounts to be withheld from the wages and salaries of residents of such states under this chapter. Such agreements may provide for recognition of anticipated tax credits in determining the amounts to be withheld and, under regulations prescribed by said commissioner, may relieve employers in this state from withholding income tax on wages and salaries paid to nonresident employees. The agreements authorized by this subsection are subject to the condition that the tax officers of such other states grant similar treatment to residents of this state.
(b) Every employer required to deduct and withhold tax under this chapter from the wages of an employee shall furnish to each such employee in respect to the wages paid by such employer to such employee during the calendar year, on or before January thirty-first of the next succeeding year, a written statement as prescribed by the commissioner of revenue services showing the amount of wages paid by the employer to the employee, the amount deducted and withheld as tax, and such other information as said commissioner shall prescribe.
(c) Wages upon which tax is required to be withheld shall be taxable under this chapter as if no withholding were required, but any amount of tax actually deducted and withheld in any calendar year shall be deemed to have been paid to said commissioner on behalf of the person from whom withheld, and such person shall be credited with having paid that amount of tax for the taxable year beginning in such calendar year.
