Gain a better understanding of how the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty works and how a business should respond when under investigation by the IRS.
Many business people do not realize or understand the severe consequences of a failure by an employer to withhold and pay over income and social security taxes on its employees. The Internal Revenue Service has the ability to hold individuals personally responsible for the amount of tax that was supposed to be withheld from employee's paychecks. This is known as the Trust Fund Recovery penalty. What many people don't realize is that multiple individuals in a business can be held responsible. Making matters much worse, the Department of Justice in coordination with the IRS has now made it a priority to criminally prosecute some of these individuals. This topic will help explain how the Trust Fund Recovery Penalty works and how a business should respond when under investigation by the IRS. It will suggest practical strategies and defenses to avoid liability. It will also point out the danger signs of a possible criminal referral. This information is critical for employers and anyone representing employers.
