/v1/employees/{employee_id}/terminations
Terminations are created whenever an employee is scheduled to leave the company. The only things required are an effective date (their last day of work) and whether they should receive their wages in a one-off termination payroll or with the rest of the company.
Note that some states require employees to receive their final wages within 24 hours (unless they consent otherwise,) in which case running a one-off payroll may be the only option.

/v1/employees/{employee_uuid}/state_taxes
Get attributes relevant for an employee’s state taxes.
The data required to correctly calculate an employee’s state taxes varies by both home and work location. This API returns information about each question that must be answered grouped by state. Mostly commonly, an employee lives and works in the same state and will only have questions for a single state. The response contains metadata about each question, the type of answer expected, and the current answer stored in Gusto for that question.
Answers are represented by an array. Today, this array can only be empty or contain exactly one element, but is designed to allow for forward compatibility with effective-dated fields. Until effective dated answers are supported, the valid_from and valid_up_to must always be "2010-01-01" and null respectively.
Payroll Admins are responsible for filing a new hire report for each Employee. The file_new_hire_report question will only be listed if:

GET /v1/notifications/{notification_uuid}
/v1/companies/{company_id}/pay_periods
Pay periods are the foundation of payroll. Compensation, time & attendance, taxes, and expense reports all rely on when they happened. To begin submitting information for a given payroll, we need to agree on the time period.
By default, this endpoint returns pay periods starting from 6 months ago to the date today. Use the start_date and end_date parameters to change the scope of the response. End dates can be up to 3 months in the future and there is no limit on start dates.
Starting in version ‘2023-04-01’, the eligible_employees attribute was removed from the response. The eligible employees for a payroll are determined by the employee_compensations returned from the payrolls#prepare endpoint.
