Our State and Local Tax Services

As a business owner, you have to deal with taxes on the state and local levels as well as the federal level. In addition to filing returns with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), you also have to file state, county, and municipal returns for a wide range of taxes including sales and use tax, withholding and other payroll taxes, franchise and corporate income tax, property tax, and more.

Staying on top of multiple layers of requirements from different tax agencies can be time-consuming and confusing. However, meeting state and local tax requirements is critical for business owners. If you don’t fulfill your obligations, you risk incurring penalties and potentially compromising the integrity of your business.

Compliance requires detailed knowledge of the tax code in your area, and if you do business in multiple locations or remotely, you have even more rules and regulations to interpret. To help you stay compliant, DHJJ offers a full range of state and local tax services. Our accounting professionals can help your business navigate the taxes in your local area confidently and easily.

With our tax professionals in your corner, you can focus on your business while we take care of the tax obligations. Take a look at our state and local tax services.

We’re Here to Help You Navigate The Tax World

Taxes are complicated, and not staying in compliance can threaten the integrity of your business. Failure to pay state and local taxes can open you up to interest, penalties, and worst case scenario, business closures. To stay on top of your obligations, you need an accountant who can help you identify the requirements, register with state and local revenue agencies, and file your returns.

You also need to budget for state and local tax payments. Even taxes that are collected from consumers or employees and remitted to the revenue agencies can be hard to pay if you’re not managing your finances correctly. The right accountant can help you stay on top of everything.

Individuals also must contend with a maze of state and local tax requirements. If you itemize your deductions, the state and local tax (SALT) deduction can add up to $10,000 to your deductions. Our team can help you optimize that deduction and ensure that you’re embracing the best tax strategy for your personal bottom line.

At DHJJ, we offer tax, audit & assurance, and accounting services. Whether you’re dealing with state and local taxes on the business or personal level, we can help you navigate the requirements and stay on top of your obligations. We can also help you with tax planning to ensure that you’re paying as little tax as possible. To learn more about our services, contact us today. We’ll talk about your needs, and then, we’ll make a plan to ensure that your finances are working for you.
