Filing a state or federal return for your business taxes requires a large volume of supporting documents. The type and quantity of these documents depend on the structure and size of your business. Whether your company is a small sole proprietorship or a large corporation, it's essential to provide your tax preparer or certified public accountant (CPA) with all the necessary information to support your tax filing.
Many accountants and business owners alike are working away from the office during these times. The inability to meet in person to discuss or prepare a tax return necessitates remote tax filing tools. If you're wondering how you can make remote tax preparation fast and easy, read on for some essential tips.
Many business owners ask, "what documents do I need to keep for tax purposes?" The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) shares some tips on their website about the records you should keep. These include real estate records, bank statements, investment reports, and any receipts or proof of payments you'll need for deductions. If you aren't sure what types of documents you need to maintain for business taxes, consult a CPA or financial advisor.

Document management is essential when it comes to business tax preparation. Your accountant will need many different records of expenses, income statements, and other business-related paperwork. To ensure you have everything you need for remote tax preparation, consider converting all of your paper files to a digital file system. Digital files are easy to sort, search, and retrieve. Modern desktop scanners from Kodak Alaris can convert receipts, invoices, contracts, and more into a useful digital catalog of information. There are scanner options that can process from 25 to 200 pages per minute.

If working remotely is a new experience for you and your business, take the time to discuss the situation with your accountant. Accounting firms have transitioned to remote work solutions. They provide virtual tax preparation services and file business taxes online.
There is typically a meeting at the outset of any accounting engagement to discuss the scope of work. During this meeting, you can ask your tax accountant how they prefer to receive important documents. They may ask you to email various forms and files or provide a file-sharing system to upload your paperwork.
Scanning documents and providing them as electronic files is essential to filing a tax return. And remote tax filing makes it easy to make timely tax payments.
