Employee or Independent Contractor? One Mistake Could Draw Six Government Agencies Gunning For Your Business

September 19th, 2014 → 2:24 pm @ // No Comments

Most business owners would be thrilled if they could classify all workers as independent contractors. It would make their bottom line look much better. The savings in payroll taxes and benefits can be very tempting. No one is immune to trying to get away with misclassifying workers. Both, small businesses and large corporations, attempt to reap the rewards.

If you are looking into the distinctions between classifying workers as employees or independent contractors, proceed with caution. An incorrect classification could result in having as many as six government agencies coming after your business for back taxes, back salary, fines and benefits.

St Genevieve, MO, September 18, 2014:Tax resolution attorney Lance Drury, founder of the Law Firm of Lance R. Drury, and best selling author of “Successonomics” posted a new blog on the LANCE DRURY LAW website entitled “Are You Inviting IRS Troubles by Misclassifying Employees as Independent Contractors?” Businesses are always looking for tax loopholes and ways to legally avoid paying taxes. Classifying employees as independent contractors is tempting and may work temporarily, but the IRS is always looking for employers trying to evade taxes this way.

Lance Drury says, “The IRS does not like to lose money. So when they see workers designated as independent contractors, it is like an open invitation to initiate an audit.” He continues advising employers, “Be very careful before deciding who is and who is not an independent contractor.

Are You Inviting IRS Troubles by Misclassifying Employees as Independent Contractors?

September 17th, 2014 → 3:38 pm @ // No Comments

Don’t do it. This happens to be one of the most common mistakes many business owners make today. In an attempt to get away with not paying payroll taxes they intentionally misclassify certain people who do work for their businesses as independent contractors. Be very careful before deciding who is and who is not an independent contractor. It could cost you tens of thousands of dollars or more in heavy penalties, fines and back taxes owed to the IRS. The IRS does not like to lose money. So when they see independent contractors, it is like an open invitation to initiate an audit.

Don’t Miss Your Last Best Chance for Leniency With The IRS

September 5th, 2014 → 7:50 pm @ // No Comments

We’ve all heard that, “Denial is a river in Egypt!” When it comes to denying the fact that you’ve received a Final Notice of Intent to Levy from the IRS, you might wish you were on a river in Egypt. We all know denial doesn’t work. However some people just insist on continuing to try it.

 

Be deadline driven when you receive a Final Notice of Intent to Levy

 

Think of the IRS Final Notice of Intent to Levy as the last invitation to the ball. Think of it as your last chance to breathe freely. Think of it as your last opportunity to step up to the plate and “man up.” Think of it in any way that will make you take action.

IRS Final Notice of Intent to Levy

August 13th, 2014 → 3:21 pm @ // No Comments

Respond in 30 Days or Suffer the Consequences

Receiving a Final Notice of Intent to Levy from the IRS is one of the most unnerving pieces of mail anyone can get. It is the last in a string of notices that, if left unattended, gives the government the legal right to put liens on your property and seize your personal assets. From the time it is issued, you have 30 days to respond. Do not make the mistake of setting it aside. Open all correspondence from the IRS immediately.

If you have not yet hired an attorney, it would be in your very best interest to hire one now.

You’ve run into trouble with the taxman. After doing your research and finding someone to work with, you’ve decided to hire a tax resolution attorney to help you get through this challenging time. That is the smartest thing you can do. But, please, don’t stop now. Even though you do not have to deal directly with the IRS, you still have work to do.
