What You Can Do

You can rapidly cross-reference transaction patterns, revenue data, and economic activity against state-specific nexus thresholds to identify which states trigger filing obligations. The skill flags compliance gaps across physical presence, economic nexus, click-through, and affiliate nexus types, helping you determine filing requirements, quantify retroactive exposure risk, and prioritize registration in new states as clients expand.

Features

Economic nexus threshold analysis

automatically compare client revenue against each state's annual sales thresholds ($100K-$500K range varies by state)

Physical presence nexus identification

detect filing obligations triggered by employees, locations, inventory warehouses, or distribution centers in each state

Multi-channel activity mapping

analyze sales through direct channels, marketplaces, drop-ship arrangements, and third-party sellers to identify hidden nexus exposure

Transaction pattern review

categorize sales by state and nexus type to flag which activity triggers which obligations

Retroactive liability quantification

assess exposure window and uncollected tax risk based on nexus determination dates and state lookback periods

Annual threshold monitoring

track changes in state economic nexus thresholds and flag when clients approach or exceed triggers

Nexus type comparison

distinguish between physical presence, economic, marketplace facilitator, and affiliate nexus rules for each operating state

Example Output

Example 1: New Client Nexus Analysis

Input: E-commerce retailer with $2.8M annual revenue, warehouses in CA and TX, FBA sales through Amazon, direct sales via website

Output:

  • Physical Presence Nexus (filing required): CA, TX
  • Economic Nexus (filing required): NY ($500K threshold exceeded), IL ($100K threshold exceeded), FL ($100K threshold exceeded)
  • Marketplace Facilitator (Amazon collects): CA, TX, NY, IL, FL, PA
  • Filing Gap Identified: Client not registered in NY, IL, FL despite economic nexus
  • Retroactive Exposure: 18 months of uncollected tax liability in non-filing states

Example 2: Transaction Threshold Alert

Input: SaaS company projected to hit $120K revenue in Colorado (threshold = $100K)

Output:

  • ✓ Nexus triggered in Colorado (economic)
  • ✓ Registration due by April 1 (30 days from threshold date)
  • ✓ Collection obligations begin: April 1 forward
  • ⚠ Monitor annual threshold: varies if Colorado adjusts inflation adjustment

Example 3: Multi-Channel Compliance Map

Input: Apparel seller: 40% drop-ship to retailers (6 states), 35% Amazon FBA (15 states), 25% direct website sales

Output:

Physical Presence Nexus States (drop-ship locations): 6 states

Economic Nexus States (total sales $950K): 12 states

Marketplace Facilitator (Amazon responsible): 15 states

Compliance Action Plan: Register in 12 economic nexus states + 6 drop-ship states, verify Amazon FBA collection in 15 states
