Texas State Comptrollers’ office conducts routine Sales and Use Tax compliance audits of businesses. Over the last couple of years there has been an increase in the number of such audits.

The State has also launched a program under which it has contracted outside firms (CPAs, Tax Consulting firms) to conduct audits on its behalf, which has further increased the probability of a business being audited. In our experience, over 60% of such audits result in a deficiency assessment.

Over the years we have gained sufficient expertise that has enabled us to protect the interests of our clients effectively.
