With the on-going changes in state nexus tax rules and the expansion of our business I decided it was time to review all the state nexus tax rules to see if we needed to broaden our scope on which states to file taxes. BDO assisted us with this review. Once these states had been identified, BDO worked with state tax offices to get us into compliance. This was an effort that I did not have the staff or expertise to do and with BDO’s knowledge of our business they were able to pin point quickly the impacted states.
State and local tax services across the U.S.
For most organizations, state and local taxes represent the majority of their overall tax burden.
With over 10,000 state and local tax jurisdictions across the U.S., companies may not even realize the extent of their tax exposure—or the liabilities they may have already incurred. When these jurisdictions seek to fill revenue gaps, you need to be prepared.
