Learning Objective

  • To identify when and where sales tax nexus exists
  • To identify which states impose sales / use tax on SaaS and other web-based services
  • To identify the Exemptions available for sales to certain customers and how to properly document exemptions
  • To recognize how voluntary disclosure agreements and amnesty programs can absolve past tax delinquencies and facilitate future compliance

Course Overview

A recent Supreme Court case and related law changes in many states have resulted in significant new state sales tax obligations on many SaaS providers. It’s important to understand that these changes could result in new tax collection responsibilities on your business even in states where you have operated without them in the past. These changes mean that SaaS providers may now be required to collect and remit sales taxes in states where they have operated for years without any obligation.

If your business crosses the economic nexus threshold in a state that imposes sales tax on services, you will need to bill your clients for those amounts and remit them to the state. In fact, you’ll need to start tracking your transactions in the state from the outset in order to know when you cross a threshold that triggers a sales tax obligation. 

This online CPE course will examine the ramifications economic nexus has had on providers of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). Service providers face significant burdens in determining which services are subject to tax due to the varying definitions of taxable services amongst states. As the number of businesses delivering their services through the Internet grows, states will continue to consider SaaS as a potential for expanding the tax base and increasing revenue.

About Instructor

I am a business tax attorney who provides clients with trusted advice concerning significant transactions, tax planning, and difficult challenges encountered in their daily operations. My practice is focused on state and local tax compliance and controversies, including Ohio and multistate sales/use tax, commercial activity tax, and personal income tax issues. Additionally, I represent client in negotiating and drafting agreements for commercial and real estate transactions, and in federal income tax controversies with the Internal Revenue Service. 

Because of my tax background, I often advise clients on the business and tax implications related to their corporate structure and significant transactions. I take pride in understanding my clients' business needs and objectives so I can help them achieve their goals in the most beneficial, yet practical, manner. 

Also, as former Chair of the Ohio State Bar Association Taxation Committee, I have been asked to present my opinion concerning tax laws and policy to Ohio legislatures on behalf of the Bar Association. These opportunities have given me invaluable insight into the legislative process and the practical considerations that mold tax policy.
