On a different board, an NSA said he just received a letter from his city government saying that he owed city business license taxes. The city said they got his business information from his state tax return.
Yes, the different levels and agencies of government talk to each other.
If this fellow is lucky, he will only have to pay the license/tax fees.
But if the city official he talks to is in a bad mood and decides that the NSA knowingly avoided paying city taxes, he will get slammed with big fines. Fines are at the discretion of the government official.
Rationality has little to do with assessing fines: bad traffic that morning, mid-life crisis, dog forgot housebreaking in the car, whatever. Bad mood could equal big fines for you.
Being an NSA is a real business. Get ALL the appropriate licenses.
Check with your city, county, and state to see what business licenses you should have.
Come clean. Now. |
