23 VAC Title 23 Agency 10 — Virginia Tax Regulations

23VAC10-500-610

Consistent reporting and coordinated enforcement

Official textlaw.lis.virginia.gov

The local official administering the license tax may consult with federal, state and local government officials to verify that any relevant certifications, determinations or classifications made by such other government official or the taxpayer for other tax or regulatory purposes are consistent with the classification claimed by the taxpayer for local license tax purposes or to coordinate enforcement of various tax and regulatory provisions. No presumption will be established by the action or inaction of another government official unless the applicable law, regulation, or policy administered by the other government official is substantially similar to the definition, law, ordinance or other provision applicable for BPOL purposes. Certifications, determinations, or classifications made by a government official or the taxpayer for other tax or regulatory purposes are evidence of the correctness of a classification of a taxpayer, but are not conclusive evidence. For example:

# 1.

The local tax official may consult with federal and state tax officials concerning whether a person who claims not to be engaged in business for local license tax purposes properly filed a Schedule C with his federal and state income tax returns.

# 2.

The local tax official may verify whether federal forms W-2, 1099 or similar forms have been filed with respect to persons or income for which classification as an employee or independent contractor is an issue.

# 3.

The local tax official may verify whether a person has obtained or is required to obtain a state or local regulatory license such as a contractor's license, professional license, zoning approval, building permit, etc. The existence or absence of such other regulatory action generally will not establish a presumption with respect to BPOL tax issues because different definitions, purposes, and policies are involved.
