Invoke Tax Partners specializes in the reduction of sales and use tax burdens for companies of all sizes across the country. Sales and use tax audits often result in significant assessments of tax and penalties based on taxing authorities’ interpretation of complex state and local tax codes. Sales tax audit defense services are imperative to ensuring tax codes are applied accurately to your operations.
Regardless of company size, state and local taxing authorities will inevitably audit both private and public companies alike. An uncontrolled sales tax audit has the potential to majorly disrupt not only a company’s bottom line, but also day-to-day activities due to capacity restraints and audit management capabilities. Invoke Tax Partners has a vast portfolio of successful sales tax audit defense services for our clients, saving valuable time and tax dollars.
The Invoke Advantage
Invoke uniquely tailors a sales tax audit defense strategy to each clients’ individual needs. Our experts work with the client and auditing authority to obtain the best possible sample for the audit. Our experts then work with client and vendors to make sure only that which is truly taxable is assessed. This process includes a detailed review of every transaction to determine taxability within the audit population, as well as requesting waiver of penalties and interest.
With extensive experience handling even the most complex sales tax audits across the United States, Invoke’s experts have created a holistic audit defense approach that delivers maximum tax savings, implements improvements to internal best practices, corrects identifiable exposure issues and continues to serve as a single-source tax partner long term.
