Navigating the requirements for nonresident entertainers performing in Wisconsin involves understanding the essentials of the Form WT-11, also known as the Nonresident Entertainer’s Report. This form plays a critical role in ensuring that entertainers, who do not reside in Wisconsin, comply with the state's tax obligations related to their performance earnings. It requires detailed information about the entertainer, including legal name, stage or professional name, social security or federal ID number, and the entity type under which they operate—options include Sole Proprietor, Limited Liability Company (LLC), Partnership, C Corporation, or S Corporation, with specific designations for LLCs based on tax treatment. The form also mandates details about the entertainment entity hiring the nonresident performer, performance specifics such as date and location, and financial aspects including the contract price and applicable withholding rate. The obligation extends to submitting a copy to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue along with the proper payment or surety bond, while also keeping records for all parties involved. The completion and accurate submission of this form ensure legal compliance, illustrating the interplay between performance art and state tax regulations, central to maintaining the integrity of both the entertainment and fiscal domains in Wisconsin.
