FAQ

In New York, the new hire paperwork collection looks similar to that of other states: I-9 employment eligibility verification form (not required for volunteers, independent contractors, or unpaid interns) W-4 federal tax collection form. IT-2104 New York state tax withholding form.

The most common types of employment forms to complete are: W-4 form (or W-9 for contractors) I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification form. State Tax Withholding form.

New employees need to fill out a Form I-9 to verify employment eligibility as well as a W-4 for income tax. In states with an income tax, it's necessary to fill out a second W-4.

Generally, employment laws focus on the location where the work is performed, not necessarily where the employer is based. That said, NYC employment laws might still apply if the employer's conduct, policies, or decisions are made in the city.

New York State is an “Employment-at-Will” state. That means that an Employer may terminate an Employee at any time and for any legal reason or no reason at all. Likewise, an Employee may terminate his or her employment at any time.

New York is not a "right-to-work" state, which means if an employee is hired at a company where the workforce is unionized, they may be required to become a union member.
