27 Failure to Withhold Voluntary Correction Statute of limitations generally continues to run until tax is paid Can mitigate potential fines / penalties by self-reporting / correcting -27-
28 10 Staying Compliant -28-
29 Staying Compliant Best Practices Re-evaluate withholding obligations at least once per year; monitor new developments in the interim Re-evaluate withholding obligations more frequently if learn of legislative changes, entity structure changes or if a reimbursement agreement is put into place Follow-up with local employer to ensure withholding and reporting is occurring properly Audit your reports does the withholding make sense? -29-
