What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas (and Georgia)
I work for a non-profit based in Georgia. In midNovember, I informed my company that I was relocating to Texas due to my husband's job. After a bit of back and forth (including me forming HenBob Consulting, LLC) they told me that I could remain an employee and work remotely from Texas. They also allowed me to go from full-time salary (40 hr/wk) to part-time hourly (30 hr/wk), at the same hourly rate. I am the only remote employee in our company.
After two pay periods, I'm still being paid as a fulltime Georgia employee. I am receiving benefits for which I am not eligible (403(b), health ins, health and dependent FSAs), and am paying GA state income tax. HR has told me that it will be a few more weeks before payroll is set up in Texas. My paystubs do list my Texas address.
Once payroll is fixed, they will reconcile my pay from the 40 to 30 hours, and seek refunds for the mistaken deductions. Is it reasonable to ask that they use the deductions for 403(b) and the FSAs to offset the difference in pay, instead of reducing my pay?
More importantly, am I at any risk? Something just doesn't feel right to me (admittedly, I'm a worrywort), so I want to make sure that I'm not doing anything where I can get into trouble - tax or otherwise.
Thanks in advance.
