Do you need some help enhancing your tax compliance ?

We can help.

For the past 22 years I have assisted California  municipal governments in implementing programs to detect and collect taxes due. In one case my services and software  resulted in a 300% increase in revenue in the first year of use.

Sales tax, Business license, Property Tax, Rental Tax.

I have designed systems which use your data in combination with other sources to crossreference and extract lists of non compliant or under reporting businesses.

My software in the hands of City employees did this.

"AB 63, sponsored by the City of Los Angeles, would allow until December 31, 2008 the release of tax information by the Franchise Tax Board to local city tax officials. The information provided by the Board would include the taxpayer’s name, address, social security or taxpayer identification number, and business activity code. Tax information provided by the Board, could be used only by an employee of the taxing authority. The Board would recover the costs for providing this data from cities electing to use such data. "
If this data can only be accessed by agency employees then having the correct tools to achieve success is imperaitive.

 "Like most new programs,
first-time users of the FTB data will find
some challenges. The cities finding the
greatest benefit from the FTB data are
those that have incorporated automated
cross-referencing, selective noticing,
business tax amnesty programs and city
council support. The behemoth Los Angeles
has booked over $45 million, while Newport Beach has
posted $1.8 million from the program so far."
