A Reversal of Fortune for The IRS Civil Asset Forfeiture Program.

February 4th, 2015 → 6:32 pm @ // No Comments

In a recent article, I wrote about the highly controversial Civil Asset Forfeiture program, which allows the IRS to monitor and seize the assets of small businesses and individuals without ever having to prove they were in any way involved in criminal activity. Initially originated as a way to target alleged terrorists and tax evaders, the IRS decided to target anyone who makes a series of small deposits in a relatively short period of time that adds up to $10,000 or more.

All financial institutions in the U.S. are required by law to fill out forms and submit them to the IRS alerting them to this type of activity.

Using Withheld Payroll Taxes For Other Expenses is Dangerous Business

November 6th, 2014 → 3:33 pm @ // No Comments

Unfortunately many employers fall into this very dangerous trap during financially stressful times. Be forewarned though that any other means of meeting financial obligations is preferable to using payroll taxes.

Any individual within a company who distributes payroll checks to anyone considered an employee is automatically considered a trustee for the U.S. government. A percentage of the payroll taxes that are withheld are called “trust fund taxes” and belong to the government.

If payroll taxes are misused to pay other expenses instead of making payment to the IRS, they will assess what is called a trust fund civil penalty also known as a trust fund recovery penalty (TFRP).

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.

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.

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.
