    Leading Tax Group

    Have you found yourself going through an Illinois Department of Revenue audit? If so, you may be worried, scared, and confused – all of which are expected. This can be a trying and difficult time for any individual or business. The Illinois Department of Revenue will reach out to you to inform you that they are auditing you but unfortunately, they do not always provide you with a lot of time to handle your affairs first before the auditor shows up at your door.

    The auditing process is conducted by the Illinois Department of Revenue to ensure that businesses remain in compliance with all the applicable laws and policies. When they have reason to believe that a business has done something wrong, they will start an audit.

    To ensure that the process runs smoothly, you want to have tax professionals on your side. At Leading Tax Group, we are here to help you and our team is not only talented but well versed and experienced in tax situations. We will make sure that your returns have been filed, your business has all its documents and paperwork in order, and much more. When you cannot provide the information that the Illinois Department of Revenue needs, you may face serious fines and penalties. Our goal is to prevent this from happening.

    If you are about to undergo an audit from the Illinois Department of Revenue, reach out to the tax team at Leading Tax Group today.

     

    How to Prepare for an Audit

    The best way to handle an audit is to hire a team of tax professionals and prepare yourself for the audit. If you are not prepared for your Illinois Department of Revenue audit or they show up unexpectedly, you can ask for extra time to prepare but it is not always guaranteed. Here are some things you can do to best prepare for the audit:

    • Call the auditor and learn more about the audit itself. You should ask questions about the audit such as what triggered it, what will they focus on, which employees need to speak with the auditor, and what time period you need to have documents for
    • Once you have the answers to those questions, you will need to start to gather the documents and paperwork to show to the auditor
    • While you may want to handle the audit yourself, you do not have to be the one that does. In fact, you can assign someone to the task, just make sure they are adequately prepared to find the information and will stick to the timeline
    • Allow the auditor to do his/her work and provide them with a quiet place to review your records and data
    • Do not be afraid to discuss the results of the audit when it is over. You can talk to the auditor about any violations, penalties, and issues that were discovered
