Why Sales and Use Tax Audits are Different.
- The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) uses a variety of methods to select businesses for an audit. Restaurants, bars, construction, and tech companies are frequent audit targets
- Out-of-state businesses with a sales tax nexus are receiving increased scrutiny
- CDTFA auditors may use a variety of methods to estimate your tax liability – many of which are often inaccurate
YOU NEED US IN YOUR CORNER.
- The penalties imposed by the CDFTA can be very harsh, as much as 50% if you were operating without a valid license.
- The CDTFA does not care about the effect overdue sales tax payments will have on your business. Furthermore, they are reluctant to offer an easy settlement.
- Once the CDTFA initiates action, the IRS is likely to follow up with its own investigation.
For over 30 years, the sales tax defense practice group at Moskowitz has represented thousands of businesses before the CDTFA. If you have received notice, don’t try to go it alone. Put our experience to work for you today!
