State Guide · New Hampshire Resident / Arkansas Employer
Living in New Hampshire,
Working for a Arkansas Company
Your tax situation changes significantly depending on whether you work from home or commute to Arkansas. Here's exactly what applies to you.
🏠 If You Work From Home in New Hampshire (Fully Remote)
Withholding
Your employer should NOT withhold Arkansas taxes. Since you work remotely from New Hampshire which has no income tax, you owe $0 in state income tax. Verify Arkansas taxes are not being withheld.
Filing
No state income tax returns required in either state.
🏢 If You Commute to Arkansas (In-Office)
Withholding
Your employer will typically withhold Arkansas state taxes for days you physically work there.
Filing
File a Nonresident Return with Arkansas to report income earned there. Then file a Resident Return in New Hampshire and claim a credit for taxes paid to Arkansas — so you are not double-taxed.
Because tax situations — especially surrounding remote work — can be complex, verify your specific W-2 reporting by consulting a tax professional or your employer's HR payroll system.

Multi-state returns can be complex. TurboTax handles both states in one workflow, or connect with a CPA who specializes in remote workers.
