Helpful IRS Links

I met with an IRS liaison a couple of weeks ago and she showed me some great resources from the IRS that may help small business owners.

Check out https://www.irsvideos.gov/  This is their video web portal.  It has useful videos on small business taxes, starting a small business, avoiding the most common tax mistakes, payroll taxes and many other tax-related topics.

Check out https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/webinars-for-small-businesses  This link has IRS webinars for small business covering topics like ‘Employee or 1099 contractor?’, ‘Steps to Owning your own Business,’ Business Entity Selection and more.

This link has the tax reminder calendar on it to let you know critical dates for filing employee and payroll taxes.  You can also have it imported into your Outlook calendar or receive reminders via an RSS feed.  https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/irs-tax-calendar-for-businesses-and-self-employed

There are also a couple tools for your employees that may help them as they navigate the tax season.  The paycheck checkup tool https://www.irs.gov/paycheck-checkup helps the employee look at his/her withholding and make sure it is best for their situation.  The Interactive Tax Assistant https://www.irs.gov/help/ita has information on most questions regarding taxes including which forms one should file, who must file, income, deductions, credits and so forth.

I hope one of these links will prove to helpful to you as you plan for your 2019 filing next month.
