Description
States yield broad powers in pursuing back taxes, penalties, and fees for noncompliance, and sophisticated ways to find noncompliant taxpayers. In selecting taxpayers for audit, auditors may choose taxpayers because of sales volume, nexus, and the complexity of tax returns or based on the occurrence of specific events, such as bankruptcy, location closures, and implementing an online sales platform.
Tax professionals and advisers must place greater emphasis on effective methods for avoiding and managing state tax audits, and more importantly, techniques for negotiating state and local tax settlement agreements.
Listen as our panel discusses effective methods in managing complex state tax audits, approaches to obtaining the best state and local tax settlements, and provides insight on state tax assessment issues under current federal tax law.
