Revenue Agent’s Report (RAR)
Compliance Services
The Federal Revenue Agent’s Report (RAR) provides an excellent opportunity for
companies to evaluate their past state and local tax returns for overpayments and missed
credit opportunities. However, the administrative and compliance requirements for filing
amended returns can present a significant challenge for the tax department.
Ryan’s RAR Compliance Services help clients overcome the challenges of managing
increased compliance requirements and reduced resources. Our seasoned State Income
and Franchise Tax professionals accurately amend state and local income tax filings to
address jurisdictional requirements. We examine our clients’ federal audit reports to
proactively identify opportunities to minimize their tax liabilities. We ensure that all returns
are statutorily accurate and include the necessary forms and documentation required by
the taxing jurisdiction. And, we provide added value and expertise by sharing knowledge
and best practices for total tax performance.
Comprehensive RAR Review, Compliance, and Planning Services
Ryan will ensure that clients take full advantage of state and local tax savings
opportunities resulting from a federal income tax audit by providing a suite of RAR
compliance and planning services that include:
Review and strategic planning
Ryan’s RAR amended return and review process identifies refund opportunities and
areas of potential exposure. In many cases, the savings identified actually offset the
cost of Ryan’s compliance solutions. Throughout the entire review process, our clients
are informed of their eligibility for any state or local amnesty or voluntary compliance
initiatives that further reduce interest and/or penalties.
Compliance management, return preparation, and filing
We provide return preparation services that leverage state-of-the-art software to produce
thorough, timely, and accurate amended state and local filings, as well as a complete
compliance package for current and subsequent audit cycles. We substantiate all filing
positions and comprehensively manage the amended returns through the approval process.
