How Enformion Can Help with Business Tax Compliance

Regulatory Enforcement

State and local governments regulate certain types of businesses. Operation of these is subject to legislative requirements.

Common categories include:

Alcoholic beverage licensees
Cannabis growers and distributors
Real estate brokerages
Vendors approved to accept public benefits payment, such as SNAP or WIC.

These types of business operations are subject to an application process with a background investigation, followed by a licensure and tax registration.
Enformion provides actionable intelligence for the investigation and verification of the information contained in these vendor applications. We provide personal data for the business applicant owners, other businesses, and associates to each of the applicants, and the histories of all. Has the applicant previously owned a company that was debarred by the program? Is the applicant married to a person who was previously debarred? Has the applicant been in business as a going concern? Do they own other properties or companies not disclosed?

Tax Compliance

Cash-based businesses are notoriously difficult to analyze for tax compliance. Enformion for Civil Enforcement (ECE) can add another tool to the tax agent’s tool belt, including Social Media Search and Reporting. How many followers does the food truck business have? Are they talking about how many sales they have had or the line around the block? Does the business owner appear to have a lifestyle that is inconsistent with their reported level of income?

Tax and Revenue agencies should consider Enformion for Civil Enforcement with our Social Media Search and Reporting package. ECE was explicitly designed with the features and databases to execute the regulatory mission, quickly and efficiently, from a single interface.
