Tax Geocode Override Option

Typically, you would select this when employees work from home. (Note: This option is aligned with the Resident State Based option on the Client|Change|Client Benefit form's Calculation Options field. See Setting Up Client Benefits.)
• Override Work GeoCode with Home Location GeoCode: The system uses the employee’s "home" location assignment to supply the GeoCode for the location-based portion of taxes. This selection is not routinely used.
