In 2009, Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty stopped a
long term reciprocity agreement after Wisconsin failed to settle up with a
timely payment of taxes owed the Gopher State. That may be why now Governor Mark
Dayton has not agreed to another agreement yet. State Rep. Steve Doyle thought
this was all behind us.
In 1968, Minnesota and Wisconsin entered into an agreement that allowed Wisconsin residents who worked in Minnesota to only file Wisconsin taxes. The same was true for Minnesota residents who worked in Wisconsin. The states would settle up the difference later through a payment to the state owed tax money. Without an agreement in place by October, it’s impossible to repair the agreement for the coming 2013 tax year.
