What really happens when you are audited and your deductions are not accepted?

1. Your tax return is changed. And maybe not just for that year.

2. You are assessed penalties for not paying the tax that is now due because your deductions were eliminated.

3. Interest is charged on the balance due.

4. Possible fraud penalties -- up to 75% of the tax owed -- may be assessed.

You don't want to be in this position. If it's personal, don't deduct it as a business expense. Period.

When clients give us a list of expenses for their business, we ask questions.

Why?

To help you!

If you have no documentation or evidence of said expense, you're setting yourself up for an audit.

And if your expenses are deemed nondeductible, you can face fraud penalties in addition to back taxes, interest on unpaid taxes, and other penalties.
