The Keys to resolving your Florida Sales Tax Problem or Audit

 

There are several keys to make sure your case is resolved timely. These keys are necessary on every case. The Department of Revenue is interested in resolving the cases in their system.

The DOR goal is to close cases and get them out of their inventory.

Here are the keys necessary to stop enforcement action on your back taxes.

• Have all your tax returns filed before you call Florida Sales Tax and the Department of Revenue on your back tax issues.

• Be prepared to give the Department of Revenue a financial statement whether you are a hardship candidate, want an installment agreement or want to settle your case.

• Be prepared to give the Department of Revenue all supporting documentation to prove your financial statement.

• Make sure you are current on deposit requirements.

 

 

If Are you being Audited by Florida DOR:

The State of Florida, Department of Revenue audit taxpayers to:

• Enforce Florida tax laws uniformly.
• Deter tax evasion.
• Promote voluntary compliance.
• Educate taxpayers.

As a general rule, the State of Florida Sales Division accepts most tax returns as filed, however they audit some returns to verify accuracy and evaluate compliance.

Florida Sales Tax Audits do not always result in the taxpayer owing additional tax, penalty or interest.

The auditor may adjust a credit carryover or correct distribution without assessing additional tax. The auditor may even determine that a refund is due.

How Are Taxpayers Selected for Audit by the Florida Sales Tax Division

The methods for selecting a business or individual to audit vary from tax to tax.

Here are just some examples of sources we use to identify a potential Florida sales tax audit candidate:

• Internal Revenue Service information. IRS sends the matching reports.
• Information sharing programs with other states and state agencies.
• Computer-based random selection.
• Analysis of Florida tax return information.
• Business publications, periodicals, journals, and directories.

 

What Types of Records Will I Need to Provide to an Auditor

When we notify you of our intent to audit, we will also tell you what records you will need to provide.

The types of records may include, but are not limited to:

1. General ledgers and journals

2. Cash receipt and disbursement journals

3. Purchase and sales journals

4. Sales tax exemption or resale certificates

5. Florida tax returns

6. Federal tax returns

7. Depreciation schedules

8. Property records

9. Other documentation to verify amounts entered on tax returns

You must keep your records for three years since an audit can extend back that far.

The Department may audit for periods longer than three years if you did not file, or filed a substantially incorrect return or payment.
