Sounds like you need to move to Tennessee or South Carolina and ask the North Carolina legislature "Who is John Galt?"

Hey Warriors,
I just got an email stating Amazon will more than likely be dropping all North Carolina affiliates due to new NC regulatory laws. According to the email, the measure is supposed to go into action in two weeks, at which time all North Carolinians will be dropped from the program. Anyone else get a notification like this for their state? Dennis |

I live in North Carolina, and I received the notice. My head must have been in the sand, but I knew nothing about this.
Way too late, I'm firing off a letter to my State Senator. But it doesn't look good, does it? |

I received the same email. I have two questions
1. Do you guys think this will also apply to other affiliate networks and/or Adsense? 2. What if a person were to just change their contact address within Amazon/the other networks to a relatives addy in a different state? Not that I'd necessarily do this, but I'm just wondering. |

This happened to New York affiliates too. I was able to find an article that gives the details:

So - has Amazon dropped all New York affililates? If not, what's the difference between the legislation there and that here in NC?

I just got the same email today from Amazon Affiliate Program - I was going to set up several affiliate websites over the next two weeks with Shareasale, CJ, Ebay and Clickbank products - anyone have any idea if they will be affected? I don't want to put in a significant effort if everything is going to disappear here in NC.
Any ideas of what took place in NY? Thanks Jeanette |

how are they going to check to see if my residence is in NC? are they going to go check IP addresses or something>
I just don't understand how they can do this. can i just change my residence to another state? i live in another one a few months out of the year anyway. what's to keep me from claiming that as my residence but still staying in NC most of the time? i just don't know how this is going to work. is it just a matter of checking Amazon's affiliates addresses? Are they going to stop sales to people in NC? Frustrating...... |

This is my guess as to how the logistics would work. Amazon will have your payment address for sales, the irs simply checks Amazon's list. When you fill out your income taxes they will know where you claim as your primary residence. This 'find what else we can tax' is likely to continue, as someone else pointed out, while states attempt to raise revenue to pay for services. Will send my opinion to the necessary politicians but am also looking into contacting a major news outlet to see what I can stir up. I live in a small town but it would seem a larger population center would be a better place to do that. As much as I might not like the news media today I don't feel bad about using them to help regular people make ends meet. One of the points I will make is the state ends up with less money because they lose the income tax they could have received because state residents don't make the money once made, because companies will not deal with NC business people anymore. Something along the line of 'cutting off your nose to spite your face' . It's just another heads up. And another example of why one should have multiple streams of income. Good luck to all. | |

If you have not heard, our state is the only one that is moving forward with the affiliate tax. Amazon is already going to be cutting ties with NC affiliates on or before the date the tax is enacted.
Please look up your Senator here: North Carolina General Assembly - NCGA - Representation And send them a letter to let them know the mistake they are making! Quote:
I'm already looking to move ASAP. | |

I got that email from Amazon also
![]() In doing some research this morning I ran across this webpage on the American Booksellers Association website that is a sample letter for their NC members to send to their senator in support of Senate Bill 487 claiming it will "level the playing field" for brick and mortar book stores. They are even more delusional than the lawmakers. ABA: Sample Letter to North Carolina Senator I also found the links where you can read the 2 bills that were put before the NC General Assembly http://www.ncga.state.nc.us/Sessions...PDF/S487v1.pdf http://www.ncga.state.nc.us/Sessions...PDF/H558v1.pdf There is also an active thread over at the ABestWeb forum about this and some participants are trying to get a group together to fight this. Add North Carolina Affiliate Tax - ABestWeb Affiliate Marketing Forum I'm in the Raleigh area with bull horn and picket sign ready! ![]() As for the question about the logistics of collecting sales tax...if this gets passed in NC, all internet based companies who have affiliates in NC will have to collect sales tax on ALL SALES MADE TO NC RESIDENTS regardless of whether or not those sales were made by an affiliate residing in NC because the law views companies having 1 or more affiliates within the state as a "nexus" or physical presence in the state. However, if the internet based company terminates their NC affiliates, they will technically no longer have a "nexus" in the state and will no longer have to pay NC sales tax on sales made to NC residents. This is why Amazon and OverStock tried to fight the NY sales tax law after they terminated all their affiliates in NY. Unfortunately, the greedy b@st@rds in NY didn't let Amazon and OverStock off the hook, so they terminated their NY affiliates for nothing. For more information about what a "nexus" is and why this whole mess is pretty much unconstitutional, you can read this article about Internet Sales Tax Fairness Internet Sales Tax Fairness | The New Rules Project I think you'll see that considering an affiliate to be a "nexus" is really stretching the interpretation of the word. HTH, Tamara |

I sent an email to my congress people.
Hmmm....we are internet marketers. You think there is some way we can get the word out to other IMers and draw heat/attention to the state congress people and what they're planning to do? Might be a futile effort that results in my moving but I don't want that to happen. |

About twenty years ago, a bill was passed in North Carolina that essentially said men were not allowed to have erections ("a perceptibly turgid state").
Why anyone still resides in this state is beyond me. The legislature is clearly insane. |

So, basically, if passed - there will be no sense in North Carolina residents trying to be an affiliate for any company - because the company would have to charge NC sales tax on any purchases done in NC that were made via any affiliate link.
So, NC would be cutting off another form of income for their residents ... so less money in circulation. Lovely! Now, I know there aren't a heck of a lot of us in NC that is even on the internet (especially here in the Foothills) ... but still ... |

If you're looking for a new place to do business from, these states currently do not have any sales tax:
Alaska, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon. It's very likely affiliate programs besides Amazon will ban affiliates from states such as New York that are going to apply sales tax to affiliate sales in their states. Note: Delaware is a great state for incorporation. Although there's no sales tax on individuals, there is a gross receipt tax (with a highest rate of less than 2%) applied when certain thresholds are met. It might be worthwhile for some people to investigate this. |

The writing is on the wall.
Amazon is dropping affiliates, because if they were to start paying sales taxes on all of the sales made by affiliates, all 50 states would quickly follow suite. Here's the problem: Amazon can't drop 100% of it's affiliates, so the States are putting the squeeze on them one state at a time. As more states enact this legislation, there comes a time when Amazon will agree to paying sales tax in all 50 states. However, this isn't new. I own a Network Marketing Company - and every "distributor" is considered a "Nexus". Meaning, the States believe that every distributor in our company is just a subsidiary of our company. Therefore, we're already set up to collect and pay sales tax on all sales. Our headquarters are in Texas - but if someone buys something in New York, we charge and pay sales tax to New York. A paperwork and filing nightmare? Yes. Fortunately, because of companies like ours (and soon, companies with affiliates), there are service providers who can calculate, file forms, and pay your taxes for you in all jurisdictions. Cheap? No. A pain? Absolutely. But it keeps us from dropping distributors in big states. Many states are moving toward a "Standardized Sales Tax" (SST) which makes it easier, but not all states are on this - and many states want to do their own thing. SO, look for companies with any affiliates to start paying sales taxes for all states in the next 2 to 5 years. I'd be surprised with the legislation going through state-by-step if it takes 5 years. More likely 2 to 3. We'll see. Anyway, if you've got affiliates, start preparing. Check out companies like Avalara, look into SST, and just do your due diligence before this comes. Because it is coming. Best, Jeff |

Just talked to my Senator's office. They said the legislation is not on the calendar. The lady I spoke to wasn't familiar with the bill nor with affiliate marketing, so I filled her in. (And yes, I was very nice and polite, and used words she could understand. Pat me on the back.)
There are a lot of us in NC, btw. And we live here because we have roots here, it is a GREAT place to raise a family, and it's our home. |

Im not affected by this but let me get this straight: If Amazon (or any other website that has an affiliate program) has to pay a tax for the commission that the affiliate would earn?
Like if you now had 35$ commission on one product, for the seller to stay legal he would have to only pay you 25$ or something? I can't really understand what the tax is about,how much is it, and how does it apply to lets say a product launch? anyone care to explain please?

Got news for you, this is just the beginning...
Cash strapped states... and Nations have been looking at this for some time now. This nonsense will spread like wildfire over the next decade. And not just Amazon, any affiliate based compensation system will be fair game.

I'm thinking that if I was living in NC and wanted to stay with Amazon I would setup and LLC in a different state and move my Amazon account over there.
If I couldn't, move my account I'd setup a new one and move all my site's links to the new account just as if i had bought the site from someone else. |

Yep...this email hit my inbox this morning.
North Carolina has truly gone over the deep end on this one. The motivation seems to be a budget gap...as explained here: Amazon Associates To Pull Out Of North Carolina Due To “Unconstitutional Tax Collection Scheme” I think the best solution is to setup another company in another state and setup an affiliate account with Amazon through that company...but it's a real pain in the butt to do. ![]() Cheers, Jack Duncan |

Wow - I didn't know there were this many fellow warriors in NC.
First realize this is not a done deal - you need to contact your state senators and legislatures - you can look them up either at your local county's voter registration office or here: North Carolina General Assembly - Home Page There's also an online petition started to let the government know we're opposed to this potential legislation: Internet Marketers Against the NC Affiliate Tax - Petition Spot Remember, democracy is not a spectator sport.... best, --Jack |

I just checked my bank balance and noticed that I got paid by Amazon and I would hate for this type of legislation to be passed here in the "Show me" state.
NC could be making their state be seen as not a good place to do business in. If I got wind of something like that here, I would be contacting them and making a "stink" about it. |

Seems like legislation like this could really blur the lines between 1099'd independant contractors and employee.
Does this mean the independant contractors in NC are not considered as having their own business? Will they become eligible now for workers comp, etc..? |

I am an Amazon affiliate living in New York and they did not drop me.
Overstock did drop me awhile ago but who cared they are no good anyway. |
