We are former IRS agents and trust fund/payroll tax experts, since 1982.
As former IRS agents I have set up hundreds and hundreds of trust fund cases on corporations that went defunct or companies that required the trust fund penalty.
We are a local South Florida tax firm whose former IRS agents, managers and teaching instructors worked out of the local South Florida IRS tax offices.
If you will owe back IRS payroll taxes, you should know that the IRS will generally set up the trust fund penalty get responsible persons who will the back taxes.
Those trust fund penalties are set up to those responsible individuals that the IRS deems had the responsibility to pay the back taxes.
There are a whole series of standards in common-law fact that the IRS checks before they set the trust fund penalty up against those responsible.
There are generally two types of taxpayers and fall in this category. Those that signed and agreed to the penalty and those who disagreed and need to file an appeal.
Both cases are work differently.
If you owe back taxes result of the trust fund penalty, IRS will require a financial statement to make a determination on how they will collect the back taxes. The tax treatment you will receive from the IRS and/or revenue officer will be as though you owe individual taxes. You’re current financial statement will reflect to IRS your collectibility.
As a result of IRS reviewing your current financial statement, you are generally going to have your case closed by Internal Revenue Service in one of three ways.
They will either place your case into:
1. a currently not collectible or hardship status,
2 IRS will ask for a monthly payment plan,
3. You may be able to settle your debt pennies on the dollar though the offer in compromise programs.
For those of you who do not agree with the trust fund penalty, you can file an 843 claim form to have your case reopened or to file an offer in compromise, doubt as to liability case.
If you do not know what to do need a free tax consultation call us today.
If you have received the notice are CP 15 B call us today and we can discuss your options based on your given in certain circumstances.
The CP15B letter or notice states that the IRS has charged you a Trust Fund Recovery Penalty (TFRP) for not paying employment or excise taxes.
What you need to do
• Read your notice carefully. It will explain your amount due, due date, and payment options.
Answers to common questions
Why was I assessed this penalty?
We charged you the TFRP for willfully failing to collect, account for, or pay employment or excise taxes. Find additional information for Employment Taxes and the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty (TFRP).
What happens if I don’t respond to this notice?
Interest will continue to accrue until the balance is paid.
Am I charged interest on the money I owe?
Not if you pay the full amount you owe by the due date on the payment coupon. However, interest accrues on the unpaid amount after that date.
What should I do if I disagree with the notice?
If you disagree with the penalty charge you may file a suit for refund.
To do so, you must:
• pay the withheld tax for one employee for each quarter of liability you disagree with, and
• file a claim for refund on Form 843, Claim for Refund and Request for Abatement, for the amount.
Call us today for a free initial tax consultation and we can walk you through the process whether you need to pay the tax profile objection to the trust fund penalty itself.

Whether you are an employee or an independent contractor is very important to Internal Revenue Service. Expert Audit Help, Since 1982.
This is an area of the tax IRS pays a lot of attention to because many employers get away with classifying people as independent contractors when in fact they should be on payroll tax.
If you have any questions or issues call us today as former IRS agents we can provide critical information to you to defend against any IRS issued that may come up.
If the Internal Revenue Service is auditing you, you will need help from the true experts in employee or independent contractor audits.
IRS puts their best IRS agents on it because it generates many dollars for the United States government.
Do not fool around with this type of audit, call true IRS tax experts.
It is critical that business owners correctly determine whether the individuals providing services are employees or independent contractors.
Generally, you must withhold income taxes, withhold and pay Social Security and Medicare taxes, and pay unemployment tax on wages paid to an employee.
You do not generally have to withhold or pay any taxes on payments to independent contractors.
Select the Scenario that Applies to You:
• I am an independent contractor or in business for myself
If you are a business owner or contractor who provides services to other businesses, then you are generally considered self-employed. For more information on your tax obligations if you are self-employed (an independent contractor), see our Self-Employed Tax Center.
• I hire or contract with individuals to provide services to my business
If you are a business owner hiring or contracting with other individuals to provide services, you must determine whether the individuals providing services are employees or independent contractors. Follow the rest of this page to find out more about this topic and what your responsibilities are.
Determining Whether the Individuals Providing Services are Employees or Independent Contractors
Before you can determine how to treat payments you make for services, you must first know the business relationship that exists between you and the person performing the services.
The person performing the services may be –
• An independent contractor
• An employee (common-law employee)
• A statutory employee
• A statutory nonemployee
• A government worker
In determining whether the person providing service is an employee or an independent contractor, all information that provides evidence of the degree of control and independence must be considered.
Common Law Rules
Facts that provide evidence of the degree of control and independence fall into three categories:
1. Behavioral: Does the company control or have the right to control what the worker does and how the worker does his or her job?
2. Financial: Are the business aspects of the worker’s job controlled by the payer? (these include things like how worker is paid, whether expenses are reimbursed, who provides tools/supplies, etc.)
3. Type of Relationship: Are their written contracts or employee type benefits (i.e. pension plan, insurance, vacation pay, etc.)? Will the relationship continue and is the work performed a key aspect of the business?
Businesses must weigh all these factors when determining whether a worker is an employee or independent contractor.
Some factors may indicate that the worker is an employee, while other factors indicate that the worker is an independent contractor.
There is no “magic” or set number of factors that “makes” the worker an employee or an independent contractor, and no one factor stands alone in making this determination. Also, factors which are relevant in one situation may not be relevant in another.
The keys are to look at the entire relationship, consider the degree or extent of the right to direct and control, and finally, to document each of the factors used in coming up with the determination.
Form SS-8
If, after reviewing the three categories of evidence, it is still unclear whether a worker is an employee or an independent contractor, Form SS-8, Determination of Worker Status for Purposes of Federal Employment Taxes and Income Tax Withholding (PDF) can be filed with the IRS.
The form may be filed by either the business or the worker. The IRS will review the facts and circumstances and officially determine the worker’s status.
Be aware that it can take at least six months to get a determination, but a business that continually hires the same types of workers to perform particular services may want to consider filing the Form SS-8 (PDF).
Employment Tax Obligations
Once a determination is made (whether by the business or by the IRS), the next step is filing the appropriate forms and paying the associated taxes.
• Forms and associated taxes for independent contractors
• Forms and associated taxes for employees
Employment Tax Guidelines
There are specific employment tax guidelines that must be followed for certain industries.
• Employment Tax Guidelines: Classifying Certain Van Operators in the Moving Industry (PDF)
• Employment Tax Procedures: Classification of Workers within the Limousine Industry (PDF)
Misclassification of Employees
Consequences of Treating an Employee as an Independent Contractor
If you classify an employee as an independent contractor and you have no reasonable basis for doing so, you may be held liable for employment taxes for that worker (the relief provisions, discussed below, will not apply). See Internal Revenue Code section 3509 for more information.
Relief Provisions
If you have a reasonable basis for not treating a worker as an employee, you may be relieved from having to pay employment taxes for that worker. To get this relief, you must file all required federal information returns on a basis consistent with your treatment of the worker. You (or your predecessor) must not have treated any worker holding a substantially similar position as an employee for any periods beginning after 1977. See Publication 1976, Section 530 Employment Tax Relief Requirements (PDF) for more information.
Misclassified Workers Can File Social Security Tax Form
Workers who believe they have been improperly classified as independent contractors by an employer can use Form 8919, Uncollected Social Security and Medicare Tax on Wages to figure and report the employee’s share of uncollected Social Security and Medicare taxes due on their compensation.
Voluntary Classification Settlement Program
The Voluntary Classification Settlement Program (VCSP) is an optional program that provides taxpayers with an opportunity to reclassify their workers as employees for future tax periods for employment tax purposes with partial relief from federal employment taxes for eligible taxpayers that agree to prospectively treat their workers (or a class or group of workers) as employees.
To participate in this voluntary program, the taxpayer must meet certain eligibility requirements, apply to participate in the VCSP by filing Form 8952, Application for Voluntary Classification Settlement Program, and enter into a closing agreement with the IRS.
