Overview of the webinar
Employee expense reimbursements that aren't handled accurately can wind up being disallowed as expenses , or even considered as compensation by the IRS.
If this happens, your company is on the hook for paying the associated payroll taxes - costing you more money as well as any penalties! You need to make sure your reimbursements are truly considered nontaxable, and that's a real challenge for even seasoned payroll pro's.
