We have a 7% tax setup for the state of Georgia, US only. The tax during checkout on the website vs the tax Paypal shows is off by $.01 causing Paypal to reject the order. I've tested this multiple times with multiple products.

Hi,

It's indeed possible because PayPal round the calculations all the time while HikaShop do all the calculations with several more digits of precision before rounding the prices for the display (correct way of handling that and necessary for accounting systems).
The best is to turn off the "send order details" option of the PayPal plugin as it is the case by default so that PayPal doesn't try to recalculate the total.
