State and Local Tax

State Taxes

State income tax is automatically applied to a client's Plan, depending on the state in which they reside. This is determined when setting up the family profile or when setting up a primary home. This incorporates relocation — state taxation is automatically updated at the indicated date on the Primary Home Relocation Goal card.

Local Taxes

To adjust municipal, city, and local taxes, navigate to Profile > Expense and click on the Tax and Fees card and adjust the Local tax percentage. Local tax can be assessed as a percentage of AGI or a percentage of gross income.
