I operate a farm in Fresno County. What are the common IRS audit issues for agricultural businesses?

The IRS has agricultural examination specialists who review these items. SCL handles IRS field audits of Fresno-area farming operations.
Can SCL help with California FTB issues for my Fresno business?
Yes. The FTB follows IRS audit results and can open independent audits of California businesses. SCL handles FTB correspondence, audit examination, and the California Office of Tax Appeals process for Fresno business owners.
I'm part of Fresno's Hmong-American community with family members abroad. Are there tax reporting requirements?
U.S. persons with foreign accounts, financial gifts from foreign relatives, or foreign trust interests have FBAR, Form 3520, and Form 8938 reporting obligations. SCL handles international compliance and voluntary disclosure for Fresno's Hmong-American community.
