Let us do what we do best, providing that audit assistance so you and your team can concentrate on running your business.

Pre-Audit Review

We can help you determine your potential audit exposure prior to the actual audit, and also help identify any potential areas of overpayment of taxes. Any tax credits must be processed within the audit. It could be paying use tax on items that are not use taxable, or you could have an exempt customer who you charged tax to who requests the tax back after the audit is closed. Once the audit is finalized, those audited periods are locked and cannot be amended to get back any overpayments of tax or even if a refund of tax was made back to a customer.

Audit Management

We can also work with the auditor during the audit. We will take the stress, burden, time commitment, and the extra workload off you and your employees.

Audit Listings Review

Let us review the audit work papers before you agree to close the audit. We will make sure you are not being assessed taxes you do not owe, or if you are entitled to any tax refunds. It is important to have your audit listings reviewed to ensure that the items you are being assessed on are truly taxable because once the audit is finalized, those audited periods are locked and cannot be reopened to correct any over-assessments, even due to errors by the auditor.
