North Carolina Administrative Code Title 17 — Revenue
17 NCAC 06C .0107 — Employees
To prevent double withholding and to anticipate any tax credits allowable to a North Carolina resident, withholding of North Carolina tax is not required from wages paid to a resident for services performed in another state if that state requires withholding. This relief from double withholding does not relieve the resident of his obligation to file a North Carolina individual income tax return and pay any balance due after tax credit. All wages received by a nonresident for services performed in this State are subject to withholding of North Carolina income tax. Any relief from double withholding must be granted by his state of residence.
