My company has been taking locality tax out of my check for 7 years,but are they wrong for doing so?

So I live in Georgia and I start my 14 hour clock every day at the company terminal I work for in Georgia. I drive to Alabama to pick up my load and drive back to Georgia making a few deliveries and when the trailer is empty, I drive the truck back to the company terminal in Georgia and do my 10 hour there every single day. Rinse and repeat. My company has been taking locality tax out of my check every week for the past 7 years, but I noticed that on my last check, they actually gave a small portion of it back. So it got thinking.......... Have they realized that they shouldn't have been taking locality tax out of my check at all?

Going back over the years, they have taken well over 10 grand from me. If I start my day in Georgia and end my day in Georgia where I live, do I have an argument to get all of the locality tax they have taken from me back?

 

No. My companies terminal is in Decatur, Georgia. I live in Decatur Georgia. Every day, I leave my house, get in my car and drive to my companies terminal where the truck is located. I start my 14 hour clock right there in Decatur and drive a couple of hours to Alabama to pick up a load and drive back to Georgia where I ultimately shut the truck down for 10 hours.

I'm only in Alabama for no more than 1 hour to unhook the empty and hook up to the loaded. All of the locations I make deliveries to are in Georgia.

 

95 percent of my work day is in Georgia.

 

I see. I pretty much have no knowledge of locality tax. I just thought just because I started and ended my clock in Georgia, that I would be exempt from paying locality tax. Only reason I have began to question it, is because not only did I not pay any locality tax on my previous paycheck, they actually paid me back some of the locality tax that they have been taking from me, even though I have done nothing different that week compared to every other week.
