IRS Tax challenges with onboarding and paying vendors
Vendor payments are a particular challenge for a multinational corporation's finance, accounts payable or tax teams as well as an increased area of focus for IRS audits. Tax documentation defects result in penalty notices, B-Notice (CP 2100) and may result in back up withholding exposure to the entity making payments to vendors and service providers. Industry best practice advocate that prior to a payment, a payor is to determine the tax status of the recipient, the source and character of the income, and the withholding rate (where applicable). More efficient vendor onboarding reduces costs and risks to the organization and increases efficiency.
