NOW IN EFFECT | Local withholdings tax incease

Local employers are reminded to adjust payroll withholdings following recent tax rate increases enacted by both Crittenden County and the City of Marion. 

Effective July 1, the payroll and net profits tax rates for both the city and county rose to 1.5%. The county rate tripled from its previous 0.5% and the city’s rate doubled from 0.75%. 

Employers are required to withhold the new rates from wages earned within either jurisdiction.
