How Christopher G Carmona CPA, APC Can Help With Payroll Tax Liability
As a Certified Public Accountant and a tax expert, I always have to work within the purview of the tax law. However, very often, I have encountered cases that require me to go beyond what I generally do to ensure that my clients get what they deserve and ensure success.
Keep reading to learn how to resolve a complicated payroll tax liability issue.
The challenge and solution
If the taxpayer claims that either they did not have bank signature authority or does not know if they had authority, the bank signature card is critical. A copy of the bank signature card may be in the Freedom of Information Act ‘‘FOIA’’ information you receive, but if not, have the taxpayer go to the bank to obtain a copy. However, if not, have the taxpayer go to the bank to obtain a copy.
In the event that the bank refuses because it does not have signature authority, you may raise this issue in your protest or in the hearing before the Appeals Commission. One of the most effective defenses to a trust fund assessment is to show the taxpayer could not have been responsible because they did not have signature authority. This means they could not have paid the taxes even if they wanted to as they could not direct payment for taxes, thus rebutting a claim of willfulness.
