WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Service today launched a redesigned page on IRS.gov to help business owners navigate the federal tax steps when closing a business.
During this difficult and challenging time, the IRS streamlined the “Closing a Business” page into simple steps, so business owners and self-employed individuals can quickly find the information they need.
“The IRS realizes small businesses and self-employed individuals are facing challenges in their personal and business lives during these uncertain times,” said Eric Hylton, Commissioner, Small Business/Self-Employed Division. “Closing a business is a difficult decision and we want to help ease the burden for people making this tough choice. We redesigned the closing a business page on IRS.gov to help businesses comply with final tax responsibilities.”
The information includes what forms to file and how to report revenue received in the final year of business and expenses incurred before closure.
The page also has information to help business owners who are declaring bankruptcy, selling their business and terminating retirement plans. For easy access, they can reach the page at IRS.gov/closingabiz.
