Developments in Executive Compensation, Fringe Benefits, and Information Reporting: Advance Planning to Reduce Audit, Class Action, and Whistleblower Challenges

Please join us for this Tax Executives Institute, Inc. event sponsored by Morgan Lewis.

Proposed topics will include:

• Top 6 IRS payroll audit issues (company cafeterias, expense reimbursements, sales conventions, worker classification, W-2/1099 penalties, and timing of payroll tax deposits)
• Executive compensation: IRS corporate tax audit issues (deferred compensation, Section 280G, Section 162(m), and bonus accrual)
• Executive compensation tax planning: FICA on deferred compensation, treatment of clawbacks, and give-backs for newly hired and former executives
• Planning for changes in withholding on executives’ equity compensation (responding to accounting changes allowing income tax withholding on equity compensation at rates over 25%)
• Dealing with class actions alleging errors in proxy reporting and 162(m) plan design, and with whistleblower complaints 
• New York payroll tax audits (challenges to withholding for NY residents, former NY residents, and temporary travelers with high interest charges, even on first audits)
