Learning Objective

  • Identify key nexus types affecting tax obligations.
  • Analyze the impact of economic nexus on businesses.
  • Develop strategies to manage state-specific nexus requirements.
  • Evaluate tax risks of remote and digital sales activities.
  • Apply best practices for documenting and remitting sales taxes.

Course Overview

Keeping up with sales and use tax nexus rules is like trying to nail jelly to a wall—especially for businesses hopping across state borders. That lovely legal term, Nexus, means businesses must collect and hand over sales taxes if they have a cozy enough relationship with a state. And, oh boy, are state laws changing faster than fashion trends? Remember South Dakota v. Wayfair? That ruling alone threw a wrench into the mix, adding new thresholds that make compliance feel like a tightrope walk.

Enter this course, your life raft in the churning sea of nexus regulations. It’s tailor-made for CPAs and tax gurus who want to confidently navigate this maze. We'll break down the old-school physical presence nexus and the flashy new economic nexus that’s been flipping tax obligations on their heads. Do you have a remote workforce? Selling like a rockstar online? Those could be game-changers for your tax strategy, and not in a fun way. Expect to learn how to avoid the financial slap on the wrist, known as penalties and back taxes.

Major topics:

  • Nexus Legal Requirements Overview
  • Economic vs. Physical Nexus
  • Remote Employee Tax Impacts
  • Sales Activity Thresholds
  • Evolving State Tax Laws

You’ll also get the lowdown on how state-specific laws, constantly changing, can trip up even the sharpest operators. With the right tools, you can streamline your processes and sleep easier at night. By the end, you’ll be the go-to person for guiding businesses through this legal labyrinth, ensuring compliance without sacrificing efficiency—or your sanity. So, jump on board and keep your clients in the taxman’s good graces while keeping their profits intact.
