Redetermination and Hearing Process
You have rights to request a redetermination of your tax assessment if you recently completed a sales tax audit and were found deficient. Our firm assists Clients through the redetermination and hearing processes to appeal the audit assessments and have been able to obtain substantial reductions in the tax liability including waiver of penalty and interest.
You may even feel like your audit was fair and that you truly owe the tax. Yet you may not have taken into account that you could be over-paying tax in other areas of your business, or paying tax on items you shouldn’t be—that you may not know about. Auditors will not knowingly look in these areas.Also, auditors are human, and occasionally make mistakes in calculations or sampling. There are always alternative methods of sampling and estimations and the auditor may have used a method more favorable to the State.
Additionally, you may have purchased goods that had the tax paid already by a supplier, but not know it. H. R. Shaikh, Seyar will meticulously review these areas. Regardless of whether you’ve already settled with the state, it won’t cost you anything to have us conduct a quick review of your assessment papers. If we think we can help, we may offer to work on contingency. In most cases you do not pay us unless we secure a refund or reduction of your obligation.
