Selling into Illinois without a physical presence there? Take note: the Illinois Remote Retailer Amnesty Program is open now through October 31, 2026.

If you've crossed Illinois' $100,000 economic nexus threshold but haven't been reporting sales tax, this is a limited window to resolve past exposure — with penalties and interest waived — at a simplified rate.

Miss the deadline, and you could face a steep 15% "undetermined location" rate in a future audit instead.

Our SALT team breaks down eligibility, the filing process, and what's at stake if you wait. Read more: https://kbfadvisory.com/illinois-remote-retailer-amnesty-program-penalties-waived-through-october-31-2026/

A common misconception: the R&D tax credit is only for big tech and pharma.

It's actually one of the more accessible credits available — especially for early-stage and growing businesses. If your team is solving technical problems or developing something new, there's a good chance some of that work qualifies.

The hard part isn't qualifying. It's building documentation that holds up if the IRS asks questions. We break down what qualifies, what the IRS looks for, and how to structure a claim that survives scrutiny: https://kbfadvisory.com/kbfs-rd-tax-credit-study-a-five-step-process-for-audit-ready-claims/

If your business operates in multiple states, OB3 just created a new layer of complexity.

More than a dozen states - including Arizona, Florida, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, and Vermont - passed legislation this quarter addressing whether and how they'll conform to OB3's changes to bonus depreciation, R&E expensing, the interest expense limitation, and international income provisions. Treatment varies significantly state to state, and in some cases the same federal provision is handled differently by the state and the city.

Q2 also brought corporate rate cuts in Arkansas and Georgia, a significant apportionment ruling in California, the first appellate decision affirming forced combined reporting in South Carolina, and new NOL limitations in Illinois and New Jersey.

Our Q2 2026 state and local tax newsletter breaks it all down, state by state: https://kbfadvisory.com/q2-2026-state-corporate-tax-update-ob3-conformity-rate-reductions-and-key-court-decisions/

The IRS has finalized updates to Form 6765.

Starting with tax year 2026 (returns filed in 2027), businesses claiming the R&D tax credit will need to provide detailed project-level reporting, including business components, qualified research expenses (QREs) by category, and descriptions of the research activities performed.

Selling SaaS into California isn't only a sales tax question. There's a separate income tax nexus test running alongside it, with its own rules for what counts as "doing business" in the state.

SB 122 triggers sales tax registration at $500,000 in California sales. California income tax nexus runs on a separate standard, with a different threshold and a facts-and-circumstances test that can create a filing obligation even before you hit the number. Crossing one doesn't mean you've handled the other.

We break down how the two tests work, where they diverge, and what SaaS sellers should be doing before 2027: https://kbfadvisory.com/sb-122-is-not-just-a-sales-tax-story-what-californias-new-law-means-for-income-tax-nexus/

No phone call. No Form 843. If you have a clean compliance history, the IRS will now apply penalty relief automatically. As of this summer, the IRS is automating penalty relief.

The new Automatic Exemption from Penalty (AEP) program is replacing First Time Abate (FTA) process for eligible returns.

It doesn't erase the underlying tax or interest, and some forms are excluded. Read more on what's changing: https://kbfadvisory.com/irs-automatic-penalty-relief-2026-aep-replaces-first-time-abate/

California is about to start taxing SaaS. Starting January 1, 2027, prewritten software sold, downloaded, or accessed remotely will be subject to sales tax under SB 122 — ending an exemption businesses have relied on for years.

Sellers need to confirm nexus, update tax engines, and review contracts. Buyers need to flag vendor relationships approaching the $5M threshold and build a use-tax self-assessment process.

We've put together a full checklist for both sides. Read it here: https://kbfadvisory.com/california-saas-sales-tax-2027-a-compliance-checklist-for-sellers-and-buyers/
