June 28 - Residency
The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance has the most advanced and aggressive residency audit program in the nation. Auditors are constantly on the hunt for revenue by pursuing nonresidents for additional New York taxes. This seminar will help you understand the rules, requirements, and issues in working through New York’s residency tests and associated personal income taxation. The panel will provide a practical review of the residency fundamentals for NY residents (and nonresidents), offer helpful insights gained from their personal experience working with clients into the audit process itself, and describe best practice strategies for achieving a successful outcome for your clients.
