Are there any of them that will take out state tax on HPs?
I don't think that any of them do, anywhere. Reason being is that reservations are exempt from a lot of state laws- so things like smoking laws, taxes on income earned on reservations, etc do not apply there.
never had a handy at a damn NA casino so if that tells ya anyhthing LOL tight as a rusted bolt!
Hubby had a HP at Four Winds in Michigan and he had to pay Michigan state tax. I don't remember if they took it out before they paid him but they gave him a 1099 and he had to file with Michigan.
NC does not.
Seems to me that Pottowatami will...I only had the one small one and would have said no but want to say someone else I know hit one and they did
My thoughts too kdk. You can end up with a rather large state tax bill. In MI you pay 4.25% on the TOTAL amount of W2-Gs. Let you slide the 1st yr, and then you pay quarterly or pay a 25% penalty. I'm on the quarterly pay now. Wondered too if our Detroit commercial casinos will take it out if asked.Quote:

I know Choctaw Grant does also in OK. My uncle always has taxes held out there.
I have heard that Winstar will not, but I can't say for sure if that is the truth or not.
Yup its interesting on how they get by on Not charging taxes ...BUT it is also interesting how the government Wont allow some NA's to have type III machines .. ??? Like why would they care . havent we pucked around these Indian groups enough .
That's interesting that you still have to pay Michigan a state tax at all with it being earned or won on a reservation. But I know each state is different, and sometimes the gaming compacts that the tribes sign with the state could outline this too. Arizona does have a state tax on gambling winnings, but being that it was won or earned on a reservation makes it exempt. So never had to pay or worry about state tax on my W2-G's here just federal.Quote:

Oh, MI is different all right when it comes to 'need/greed'. I've read through the compacts, but they're so damn complicated it's hard to read what they really mean. Now that the state keeps breaking the compacts, and the casinos take all the advantage they can, I wonder if they make any difference at all.Quote:

I have Foxwoods take out the 6.9% CT state tax from every handpay. I've owed thousands in past years to the state, so I've learned my lesson. Just sucks when I can't take it out in Vegas. CT gets 6.9% of Vegas jackpots, too. :(
