CPAs and other tax professionals deal mostly with corporate and individual income tax issues. Often times sales tax isn’t addressed, either because the client “has it handled”, because the company is in a low taxability or net loss position for income tax, or simply because the company hasn’t considered the many sales tax ramifications of sending employees or third parties into a state, leasing property, etc. Once a client receives a notice from a state asserting nexus and retroactive taxes, the CPA might be in a defensive situation. We want to put you back on the offense!
This course will provide the basics of sales and use tax as well as the identification of common pitfalls, and current hot topics that will assist client service professionals identify areas of potential exposure and potential planning.
Some of the trickiest multistate challenges arise from the basics, so tax staff must understand the differences between the Quill physical presence standard and other types of attribution nexus and the ability to navigate state sales tax variations for online sales for multi-state businesses. Tax professionals must also understand the impact of the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement, the potential impact of the Marketplace Fairness Act, and key variations in major states sales tax structures. Only then, armed with this broad-based background, will firm personnel be prepared to speak knowledgeably to their clients about the state sales tax ramifications for their multi-state clients.
This webinar will provide suggestions for fine-tuning your company's sales and use tax compliance and planning in response to the latest developments affecting companies with multi-state presence, physical or online.
Following the speaker presentations, you'll have an opportunity to get answers to your specific questions during the interactive Q&A. Upon completing this seminar, you will be current in sales and use tax treatment affecting multi-state clients and also when to consider partnering with a state tax consultant.
