If you are an EA and haven’t attended, we suggest making it out for next year’s conference. The organizers and members truly recognize and show appreciation for each other’s efforts in their field. We had a great time and will be attending again next year!

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) states that Most small businesses need a combination of licenses and permits from both federal and state agencies. You’ll need a federal license or permit if a federal agency regulates your business activities. The requirements — and fees — vary based on your business activities, location, and government rules. Certain types of businesses, such as restaurants, construction companies, online businesses, or even home-based businesses, may have requirements that are particularly important to understand. However, you may be unfamiliar with them. Requirements can range from a basic business license to operate within a city or county to a specific permit to sell alcohol or lottery tickets.

We discussed the most common business licenses in an earlier post, and this blog will touch on Payroll, Unemployment, and Withholding Registration.
