Course Description

The IRS is focused on closing the tax gap. One way it hopes to do so is to collect promptly on unpaid employment taxes. They have now issued new directives to pursue many employers at a pace we have not seen before in recent history. In order to keep your client out of trouble in this arena, it is imperative that you understand what employment taxes are comprised of, how they are to be filed and paid, and what compliance issues can get your client into trouble. If you don’t understand the rules properly you can inadvertently be getting your client into trouble without knowing it. Attend this basic overview seminar to learn what you need to know about employment taxes, the requirements for payment and filing employers must follow, as well as compliance efforts and issues that employers may face and strategies to help them resolve those issues.
