GBC Now Using E-Verify to Help Atlanta Businesses; Outsource Your HRMS.

Ensure that you have
secured a legal workforce.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

GBC Tax and Payroll Services are now offering E-Verification for all your HRMS needs.

E-Verify employer agents, formerly called designated agents, use E-Verify to confirm the employment eligibility of another company's employees in regard to their immigration status. Our E-Verify employer agents may also handle payroll and other administrative tasks that include managing the Employment Eligibility Verification (Form I-9) process. It’s a typical part of a Human Resource Management and Payroll Service we offer through GBC. Companies or small businesses that are mandated, (or who choose, in some states), to participate in E-Verify have the option to have a E-Verify employer agent use E-Verify on their behalves and deal with the red tape for them. Companies big and small use E-Verify employer agents for many reasons; in the state of Georgia it is usually required by law.

U.S. law requires both public and private companies to employ only individuals who may legally work in the United States – either U.S. citizens, or foreign citizens who have the necessary authorization. This diverse workforce contributes greatly to the vibrancy and strength of our economy, but that same strength also can attract unauthorized employment, potentially resulting in easily-avoidable hassles for you. E-Verify is an Internet-based system run by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in partnership with Social Security Administration and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, and it is the best way employers can ensure a legal workforce. GBC Services, LLC is fully licensed to do this task. Call on us to handle your e-verification, along with your payroll and human resources management, and eliminate any troubles that could ensue!

Deducting Miles For Business, Medical, Moving & Charity

Your accountant or CPA can
help you find all your
legitimate deductions

Exactly how much can you deduct? 

For 2014, the standard mileage rates for the use of an automobile (which includes cars, vans, pickups or panel trucks) in cents per mile are:

         56 c/mi for business miles driven

         23.5 c/mi driven for medical or moving purposes

         14 c/mi driven in service of charitable organizations

The rates for business, medical and moving expenses will be different for the 2015 tax year since those rates are adjusted each year – expect to see those updated numbers reported here in December 2014. However, as the rate for charitable expenses is fixed by statute, it can only be changed by Congress so that number will likely sit tight at 14 cents just like it has since the Clinton era.

Beware of Scams by Phony IRS Agents

Crooks use the 1040 season
to access your personal and financial
information.

The official method of correspondence by the IRS and local or state tax offices is U.S. Postal Service-delivered letter. If you initiate contact by phone call or email, you may get a response that way. But the IRS rarely makes unexpected phone calls or sends unsolicited emails, faxes or text messages.

If the message arrives by email or text, you may be asked to click on a link for more details. Don't. That can install "malware" programs in your computer to give the crooks remote access to your files and passwords or even let them take control of the device. This year, new ploys include:

• Bogus claims that you can get $80 for completing a customer survey for the IRS. The message asks for personal and financial information that can be used to steal your identity.
  
• Fictitious promises of refunds or rebates based on excess or withheld Social Security benefits or for the expired Economic Recovery Credit Program or recovery rebate credit. Each of these scams requests your SSN and other personal info.
• False claims that you can use Treasury Form 1080 to transfer funds from the Social Security Administration to the IRS, enabling a payout to you from the IRS.
• Offers of "free money" from the IRS or other government agencies. These lies circulate in flyers posted at churches and other gathering spots, and also in online advertisements. They often imply that tax credits or refunds are available without proof of eligibility.

Choosing the Right CPA for You

Interview at least 3 CPAs to get
the right one for your business.

CPAs are more than just individuals who do your yearly taxes. They can advise you on a long list of other services, which may include advice on your accounting system, financial, retirement, estate and tax planning.

CPAs are part of a business owner's professional team along with a banker and a lawyer.

Your local Chamber of Commerce will tell you the names of CPAs who are members. When you attend any type of meeting, or meet other business owners, ask for CPA recommendations. Here are a few more points to consider:

• Use the 60% Rule
  If you're a business owner, pick a CPA who has 60% of their business coming from business owners like you! They're more apt to keep up with the laws regarding clients they deal with most often. If you're a corporation, make sure that the person specializes in corporate accounting, including financial statements, audits, etc.
• Bring Your Records to the Interview
  Bring a copy of at least one year's tax return when you interview a CPA. This way your prospective CPA can give you educated "guesstimates" as to what their services will cost you.
• How To File
  If you want to save some money, ask how they want your paper files.... If you bring your files to them in shoeboxes (hey, many folks do), you will pay to have all that deciphered! You can save money if you separate the information the way the CPA suggests.
