IRS tax help for the Arizona Construction Industry

Arizona IRS Tax Help

There is only on germ or virus is more contagious than any other to the construction industry—that is virus of bad IRS advice pass amount your own peers.  If you want accurate information that you can rely on get it from a professional in another field that specializes in that subject.

Most construction professionals get into trouble with the IRS due to bad advice, especially in the areas of independent contractor/employee issues, the structuring of their business, and what they can take as business and personal deductions, and the lack of making no estimated tax payments towards current year tax liabilities or claiming exempt on their W-2 withholdings.

We can help Arizona construction industry professionals in the following specialties:

Electricians, Concrete Workers, Plumbers, Roofer, Dry Wall and Plaster Workers, Architects, Inspectors, Project Managers, Landscapers, Painters, Glazers, Framers, Tile and Flooring Workers. 

Why is the IRS making the construction industry a target for IRS audits?  First, is the lack of filing tax returns.  The construction industry has the lowest compliance rate among all the professions.  Second, lack of making tax payments in the form of estimated taxes or having withholdings on W-2’s wages.  Employers in the construction industry typically want to pay their workers as if there were independent contractors.  Hence, no withholdings are being paid by the employers and the workers fail to pay estimated taxes.

If you receive a notice of being audited by the IRS—take it very seriously, get professional help.  If one year has significant changes that produce additional revenue to the IRS, it is highly probably that the audit will be expanded to other years.  The IRS knows that bad practices regarding IRS matters are very contagious in the construction community.  Call me today for a free initial confidential consultation.

How to avoid an IRS audit in Arizona? IRS help from Tax Debt Advisors, Inc

 Avoid IRS Audit for Arizona Residents

  • Use a tax program.  Manually prepared returns are pieces of paper begging for attention.
  • Don’t believe all the advice that shows up on the internet and news shows during tax filing season.  Some of the advice I have heard would actually increase the likelihood of being audited.
  • Extend the filing of your return.  I have yet to have a client come in for an audit that filed a return right before the October 15th deadline.  Of course the return has to be filed correctly.
  • Report all income that the IRS knows about.  That would include all W-2’s, 1099’s and K-1’s—especially the ones that your thought were not going to be reported to the IRS.
  • Avoid the home office deduction.  I have literally had to charge some clients more for the preparation of this tax form than the benefit they were getting.  The home office deduction is rarely worth the tax savings and the risk of an audit.  If you have a home office deduction that amount to $1,000 and you are in a 15% tax bracket the savings is only $150.

But if you do get audited, get professional help.  It will pay for itself each year you file in the future and minimize your exposure for the year or years being audited.

Why am I being audited by the IRS in Arizona: IRS help from Tax Debt Advisors, Inc

Why am I being audited by the IRS

The most common reasons include:

  • If you are self employed and deal in cash such as restaurants, hair salons and contractors, you are in a high risk of audit situation.  The obvious reason—it is easy to put the money in your pocket and not report it on your return.
  • If you make large cash deposits into your bank account.
  • If you claim deductions that are almost as much as your reported income.
  • If you leave off of your return income that was reported to the IRS including     W-2’s, 1099”s, and K-1’s.
  • Unusually high charitable donations, especially those that are household items that are often overvalued.
  • Math errors on your tax return.  Using a computer program will avoid the math errors that go unnoticed on a paper return filled out and mailed in on April 14.
  • If you are using a tax preparer that the IRS has discovered was overstating deductions and generating large refunds.  In most cases, clients coming to us for this reason were actually aware of the practice but chose to ignore it believing that they would not be audited and that the IRS would not hold them accountable for all the interest and penalties and additional taxes if caught.

Use some common sense here and consider the agony that a bad audit will cause you financially and perhaps professionally and with your marriage.  This is probably the main reason why so many taxpayers are filing for innocent spouse protection.  One spouse, usually the husband is filing joint returns that if audited are going to result in large tax debts.  Bad returns are ticking time bombs.  The danger is that when the first one is not audited the taxpayer will becomes more bold and continue the practice in the following years and takes greater and greater risks until the IRS knocks on their door.

How long before the IRS discovers I have unfiled tax returns? From Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.

“I have unfiled tax returns…”

It may take several years before the IRS will contact you regarding unfiled tax returns.  However this works against you.  The interest and penalties on unfiled returns can double the amount you owe in just a few years.  As time goes by many records that can reduce your liability have been lost.  Your memory of what happened several years ago will fade and you will likely pay much more on your taxes if you had filed returns sooner.  Many clients miss one year and when nothing happens another year goes by and then another.  Before you know it six or seven years has passed and your tax problem will be getting more difficult to deal with each deadline missed.  There is also a serious psychological burden carried when you have unfiled tax returns.  You know that a day of reckoning will come and decisions that can be made are postponed and opportunities will be permanently lost.  Time is never on your side when you have unfiled tax returns.  By filing returns on time even if you do not have the money to pay taxes owed is far better than not filing and taking on additional penalties and interest.  Call me today for a free confidential initial consultation to get started.

I am separated from my spouse. Who is entitled to claim our children as dependents? From Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.

Claim our Children as Dependents

The general rule according to IRS Publication 17 is that the parent with the custody for the majority of the year is eligible to claim the children as dependents.  A divorce decree, decree of separate maintenance, or custody decree should specify who is entitled to claim the children as dependents.

Child support payments do not entitle the spouse making the payments to claim the children as dependents.  A noncustodial parent may claim the children if the custodial parent signs IRS form 8332 and agrees to not claim dependency exemptions for the children.

Can other government agencies take my refund? From Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.

Someone took my IRS Refund

The IRS will send your refund to other government agencies.  This includes debts owed on back child support.  If there is an error on your child support debt, you should contact the agency directly.  Calling the IRS about the error will not stop your refund or future refunds from going towards the debt owed.

If you do not want your refund to go towards past child support payments—adjust your withholdings so that you only have enough withheld to cover your tax liability.  This will give you time to work out any disagreement you have over amounts due without losing future refunds.

Can I appeal what the IRS says I owe? From Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.

Appeal what the IRS says I owe

Yes, but there are procedures that need to be followed exactly and timely to get appropriate relief.  There are two kinds of appeals.

The first is a Collection Due Process (CDP) appeal which is filed on IRS Form 12153.  This appeal is used when you have received an IRS Notice of Federal Tax Lien, a Final Notice of Intent of Levy or a Levy on your state refund.

The second is a Collection Appeals Program (CAP) which is filed on IRS Form 9423.  This is appeal is used when the IRS rejects your proposed installment agreement, termination of your installment agreement, when the IRS levies or seizes your property and when the IRS files a Notice of Federal Tax Lien.

Call me today if you are facing any of these threatening IRS actions to schedule a free consultation on how I can help you appeal your case.
