What a relief! Tax day is officially behind us. But is it really?
Unfortunately, when you are a business operating in the Communications Services sector, taxes and regulatory fees never cease; and neither do the Departments of Revenue, USAC and other audit & enforcement agencies responsible for monitoring and enforcing compliance.
There are estimated to be over 300 types of taxes, fees, charges, and surcharges imposed on potentially 685 different tax bases requiring as many as 48,000 different filings per legal entity across the U.S. in over ten thousand jurisdictions at the federal, state, and local levels. And with the continued shift in consumer demand from traditional, switched telecommunications to Voice over IP and other enhanced technologies (not to mention the explosion of “Internet of Things” solutions), the governmental bodies that derive revenue from Communications Taxes are increasing their enforcement activity and pushing the envelope in search of funds.
If your company has an existing issue or concern that requires attention or you espouse the “better to be safe, than sorry” mindset, now’s the time to consider retaining The CommLaw Group to help.
