California’s Franchise Tax Board (“FTB”) has quietly increased its enforcement on residency audits, and the trend is hitting a growing number of taxpayers who believe they successfully “moved out of California.” With remote work on the rise, more individuals are claiming residency in Nevada, Texas, Arizona, Idaho, and Florida, yet still maintain meaningful ties to California. The FTB is using new data-matching tools to challenge these filings and taxpayers are being caught off guard.
At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we are seeing a pattern emerge: taxpayers who genuinely believed they left California are now receiving residency audit letters questioning where they actually live, earn income, and maintain their economic interests.
Why California is Targeting “Ex-Californians”
California has one of the highest state income tax rates in the nation, and departures from the state are at record highs. The FTB is now reviewing returns for signs that a taxpayer is claiming out-of-state residency while still owning property here, works remotely for a California employer, maintains a CA LLC or S-Corp, uses a California mailing address, and frequently travels to California for work or family needs.
The FTB analyzes credit card activity, cellphone records, online banking logins, EZ-Pass and flight data, all to build a timeline of where you actually spend time. Even short or frequent trips to California can lead the state to classify you as a statutory or domiciliary resident. Read more about part-time resident and nonresident status on the FTB’s website.
Common Red Flags
Based on our case experience, the FTB is aggressively scrutinizing those taxpayers who retain a California home (even if smaller than their main home), children or spouse remaining in California, using California doctors, accountants or business vendors, California based vehicle registration or insurance, and continuing to manage a California business entity. Taxpayers are surprised by how simple actions such as, keeping a California gym membership, could be used to argue continuing residency.
How we can help
Residency audits are highly fact-specific. At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we can assist taxpayers by preparing evidence packages that demonstrate true domicile change, defend against improper FTB conclusions, negotiate audit scope and limit document requests, and handle appeals and resolve complex multi-state tax exposure. For taxpayers planning a move or currently under FTB examination, getting ahead of the issue is critical. Our firm helps clients structure their affairs correctly and defend their rights if challenged.

CA Residency Audits are Surging: FTB Targets Remote Workers Who Claim They “Moved”
CDTFA Rate Changes & Compliance Alerts
As the government returns to full operational status, California businesses are once again squarely on the radar of the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA). With new sales-and-use tax rate changes taking effect, heightened enforcement activity, and several compliance updates quietly released through CDTFA bulletins, now is the time for businesses to get ahead of the changes rather than react to them during an audit. See our firm’s August 6, 2025 blog post on what to do if CDTFA issues an audit and sends a notice.
Whether you are a retailer, e-commerce seller, contractor, professional services provider, or out of state business delivering goods into California, these updates may impact your tax obligations for the remainder of 2025 and into 2026.
CDTFA issued multiple Tax Information Bulletins announcing new district sales-and-use tax rates taking effect July 1, 2025 and again on October 1, 2025. Because California allows cities, counties, and special districts to add their own taxes, the total rate in some jurisdictions is changing.
Now that normal government operations have resumed, CDTFA is signaling a renewed focus on audits, nexus enforcement, and sales-tax compliance reviews. Recent CDTFA announcements also show increased auditor hiring and expanded enforcement resources, two clear indicators that more businesses might be contacted in the coming months.
Who is most at risk
Cash-heavy businesses, e-commerce retailers, out-of-state businesses shipping into California, construction contractors, businesses reporting exempt sales, and entities with inconsistent district taxes on returns. Minor errors, such as using outdated district rates, can be treated as negligence, resulting in penalties, interest, and back-tax assessments.
Why this matters for your business
Even a small rate change can trigger under-collection or over-collection of sales tax. Refer to the CDTFA’s Publication on Collection Procedures for more information. Businesses are responsible for charging the correct district rate based on the location of the sale or delivery, not just the state base rate. Out of state businesses with California customers (including online retailers) must also update their tax-collection systems to avoid CDTFA penalties.
Next steps
Be sure to update your POS systems, accounting software, and invoice templates before the effective dates, if not already. Verify rates based on customer delivery address, not billing address, as these might differ. For businesses with multiple locations, confirm each location’s correct district tax rate.
What businesses can do to plan for 2026
With multiple rate changes, rising enforcement levels, and expanded nexus obligations, businesses operating in California need to be more proactive than ever. The CDTFA has made it clear: errors in tax rate application and recordkeeping will be penalized, whether or not they were intentional.
Now is the ideal time to conduct a sales tax health check or internal audit, review nexus exposure (especially for e-commerce and multi-state businesses, correct outdated systems, and ensure staff are trained on the new rules and sourcing requirements.
At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we help businesses with sales and use tax audits, CDTFA appeals, nexus analysis and multi-state exposure, tax-rate reviews and compliance planning, voluntary disclosure programs, and more. If you’re unsure whether your business is prepared for California’s new tax environment, we can help you review your systems, reduce risk, and avoids costly penalties before CDTFA comes calling.
If you have any questions regarding your individual or businesses’ state and/or federal tax return(s)/tax liabilities or received a notice from the IRS, FTB, EDD, CDTFA or any other regulatory agency, please call or email Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, to setup a consultation with our firm.

How SB 711 Impacts Your California Taxes
When it comes to California taxes, “conformity” to the federal Internal Revenue Code (IRC) does not always mean alignment. This can create big surprises for taxpayers. With the passage of Senate Bill 711, California has officially updated its conformity date to January 1, 2025. This means the state will now recognize most federal tax provisions that were in effect as of that date but not all of them.
At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we are closely monitoring these changes because the gap between state and federal law is one of the most common causes of confusion, compliance errors, and unexpected tax bills for our clients.
What’s Changing
Previously, California’s conformity date lagged years behind federal law, meaning many federal updates never flowed through to California tax returns. Senate Bill 711 moves that benchmark forward, aligning California with a much more current version of the IRC. This is good news for California taxpayers, particularly those who claimed recent federal deductions or credits that were disallowed at the state level.
However, full conformity does not occur automatically. California is considered a “fixed-date” conformity state and generally has decoupled from many significant federal tax provisions enacted after its specified conformity date (this was recently updated to January 1, 2025 for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2025). Some of those provisions include bonus depreciation and Section 179 expensing limits, qualified business income (QBI) deductions under IRC § 199A, certain opportunity-zone and clean energy provisions, etc.
Suggested year-end preparations
Review your 2024 and 2025 filing side-by-side. Make sure any carryovers, depreciation schedules, or credit calculations align with California’s updated rules.
Confirm withholdings and estimated payments. If your federal taxable income changes under the new conformity date, your state liability may shift too.
Evaluate business and investment structures. The new conformity date could affect pass-through entities, deferred compensation, and opportunity-zone timing decisions.
Why a Tax Attorney Can Help
California’s partial conformity system often leads to complex reconciliations and audit exposure. A seasoned tax attorney can interpret which provisions truly apply to your situation, amend prior returns if needed, and communicate directly with the Franchise Tax Board or IRS if questions arise. At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we help individuals, professionals, and business owners navigate these nuanced updates, so your year-end planning is proactive, not reactive. Do not let new rules catch you off guard. Turn tax uncertainty into opportunity with trusted legal insight.
If you have any questions regarding your individual or businesses’ state and/or federal tax return(s)/tax liabilities or received a notice from the IRS, FTB, EDD, CDTFA or any other regulatory agency, please call or email Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, to setup a consultation with our firm.

Coverage, Credits, and Chaos: How Policy Shifts Could Raise your 2025 Tax Bill
As the 2025 open enrollment period beings, California residents are facing an important financial question that extends far beyond health insurance – what happens if federal premium tax credits expire?
At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we are closely monitoring this issue because it carries significant implications for tax planning, cash flow management, and compliance for both individuals and business owners across the state.
The premium tax credit, originally expanded under the American Rescue Plan and later extended by the Inflation Reduction Act, has helped approximately more than 1.7 million Californians with seeking access to health coverage through the Covered California marketplace. These credits effectively reduce monthly premiums by applying an advance payment of a federal tax credit.
However, unless Congress acts to renew these provisions, those credits could expire soon, meaning that many Californians could see their premiums nearly double in the coming year. While this change originates in health policy, it directly affects taxpayers adjusted gross income (AGI), itemized deductions, and estimated payments. These are key components of taxpayers’ overall tax strategy.
From a legal and planning standpoint, this is a reminder that tax law and public policy are deeply interconnected. The loss of these credits would not only make coverage less affordable but also complicate tax reporting and reconciliation. This could place a huge financial burden on those taxpayers who received advanced premium payments in prior tax years.
Under the guidance of a trusted tax attorney, we recommend the following action items:
- Reviewing your 2025 income projections and determine if any adjustments to withholding or estimated payments are required.
- Schedule time with your tax attorney and advisor early to evaluate adjusted gross income changes and deductions.
- Stay updated on both IRS (Federal) and Covered California (State) guidance and announcements, as policy developments could unfold quickly.
At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we help clients anticipate and adapt to these kinds of changes so you can make proactive decisions before they affect your bottom line. For assistance navigating the tax implications of health insurance changes, please contact our office to schedule a consultation with our firm. We cannot stop Congress from debating your health credits, but we can make sure your tax plan does not get burned in the process. When it comes to taxes, there is no such thing as a “we’ll see what happens” strategy.
If you have any questions regarding your individual or businesses’ state and/or federal tax return(s)/tax liabilities or received a notice from the IRS, FTB, EDD, CDTFA or any other regulatory agency, please call or email Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, to setup a consultation with our firm.

IRS Digital Footprint Enforcement – Use of Digital Evidence in Audits
Most people are not aware of the Internal Revenue Service’s tax enforcement initiatives as they relate to audits or that they even exist per the IRS’s Examination of Returns and Income guidelines with their internal manual. These tax enforcement initiatives are setup for purposes of gathering evidence and building tax cases based on . When people think of IRS audits, they initially think of bank statements and tax returns. However, in today’s AI-driven enforcement era, the IRS is actively using social media posts, luxury purchases, and even lifestyle indicators to detect tax fraud and Californian residents are prime targets.
California, commonly home to many popular influencers, entrepreneurs, real estate investors, entertainment professionals, and high-net-worth individuals, is often considered to be a high-discrepancy state, where lifestyle often exceeds what is being reported on tax returns. And, IRS is watching.
What is IRS Tracking through Social Media
IRS tax enforcement enlists investigators to review social media posts which showcase high-end travel, cars, private jets, designer goods, and events. Other online traceable items may include review of real estate records from California counties which can be cross-referenced against reportable income, review of cryptocurrency wallet activity connected to digital assets used for luxury purchases, and review of any unreportable income from Airbnb, Etsy, Poshmark, YouTube, or OnlyFans platforms.
Why Californians Face Extra Scrutiny
California is reported to have the highest number of cash economy businesses under audit by the IRS. Generally, IRS can collaborate with other regulatory agencies such as the Franchise Tax Board (“FTB”), California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (“CDTFA”), and Employment Development Department (“EDD”), for example, to create joint programs that allow real-time data sharing of taxpayer information amongst them all. Additionally, IRS now uses AI enforcement tools that can automatically flag lifestyle mismatches. All of this to say, that what you post online could be problematic based on whether income, business loss, or capital gains were properly and timely reported for that tax year.
Why this Matters
A common misconception by taxpayers is that they assume audits are triggered only by numbers on a tax return. However, this is not always the case. The IRS is increasingly building tax fraud cases from outside the tax return and turning to your digital footprint to build a narrative that negatively impacts your tax position.
What Californians Should Do Now
Remember to be socially aware of and cautious about posting luxury purchases if your reported income may not align. It is critical to track all digital revenue streams whether that is derived from influencer income, Venmo or Cash app payments, or crypto trades. Out of an abundance of caution, seeking advice from a local trust tax attorney is another opportunity to increase your line of defense should you receive a lifestyle audit letter. It is recommended that you do not respond on your own.
Final Thoughts
In this new era of AI enforcement, your lifestyle tells a tax story and you should be the writer of that financial, autobiographical story. Your tax story tells more than what you earned. It reflects how you live, how you invest, how you structure your assets, and how prepared you are for scrutiny. California residents, particularly those in business, real estate, or digital income streams, face a higher likelihood of lifestyle audits. If your Instagram story says, “Beverly Hills,” but your tax return says, “below the poverty line,” you can expect to receive a letter from the IRS. The smartest taxpayers do not wait for an audit to define their story, they work with a qualified tax attorney to write it first, with clarity, accuracy, and intention, while preserving their taxpayer rights.

2026 Federal Inflation Changes Could Impact Your Tax Bill
The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has announced the inflation adjustments for tax year 2026, and these changes are significant. These updates affect everything from the standard deduction and tax brackets to retirement contribution limits and credit thresholds. While the adjustments are designed to reflect the rising cost of living, they also introduce important planning opportunities and potential drawbacks for taxpayers and business owners.
At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we understand how small changes in the numbers can have a big consequence for your overall tax strategy. Let us break down the highlights and what they might mean for you.
Key highlights of the IRS inflation adjustments include higher standard deductions for Married filing jointly ($32,200), Head of Household ($24,150), and Single/Married filing Separately ($16,100). These adjustments translate to fewer taxpayers having to itemize deductions but California may continue to make the decision to itemize complex; as it does not always align with Federal rules. It is recommended to have a strategic planner to help ensure you are not missing potential deductions at either level.
Another important highlight is the upward shift of income tax brackets which may be good news for most taxpayers. However, it is highly recommended to maintain tax planning efforts under the guidance of a trusted tax attorney, to closely monitor the timing of income and deductions. This is especially helpful in circumstances where there is variable income that needs to be reported. A third highlight, which we posted about previously, are the raised limits for retirement contributions (Sept. 18, 2025 blog post), health savings accounts (HSAs), and earned income credits. For anyone who is nearing retirement or managing multiple sources of income, these adjustments may provide opportunities to reduce taxable income while strengthening long-term financial plans.
Why You Need a Tax Attorney
Tax software cannot analyze strategy. Though your accountant can prepare your return, a tax attorney can protect, plan, and advocate for your long-term interests. A trusted tax attorney can translate Federal and California tax law interactions, identify opportunities to minimize liability across both systems, represent you before the IRS or FTB if issues arise, and help you structure your business, trusts or estates to adapt to new thresholds and preserve wealth. The 2026 inflation adjustments are more than just numbers; they are signals for change. Having an experienced advocate ensures that those changes work for you, not against you.
Final Thoughts
The IRS’s 2026 inflation adjustments highlight one truth: tax planning is never static. The rules evolve, your income shifts, and opportunities open and close every year.
Before filing season arrives, take time to review your tax position, discuss your goals, and craft a proactive plan with a trusted tax attorney.
At Wilson Tax Law Group, APLC, we help individuals and businesses across California navigate these changes with precision, confidence, and compliance. Schedule a consultation today to see how these new inflation adjustments may impact your tax strategy and how we can help you stay ahead of what’s next.

When IRS goes Quiet: What Furloughs Mean for Taxpayers & Practitioners
The Internal Revenue Service recently announced plans to furlough nearly half of its workforce amid the current federal funding lapse and government shutdown. While this may sound like another bureaucratic hiccup in Washington, these furloughs could have real and immediate consequences for taxpayers, businesses, and professionals navigating already complex tax obligations.
What’s going on
Due to stalled federal budget negotiations, the IRS is preparing to suspend operations for thousands of employees, potentially impacting key functions such as processing mailed returns and correspondence, issuing refund checks or manual adjustments, responding to taxpayer inquiries or practitioner calls, scheduling and conducting audits or appeals, and/or handling collection actions and installment agreements. In essence, the IRS is entering a limited operations phase which means essential services like electronic payments and automated systems will continue, but human-handled matters may slow dramatically or stop altogether.
What this means for taxpayers
For individuals and businesses, the immediate impact depends on where you are in the tax cycle. If you’re waiting for a refund, expect longer delays with electronic refunds still moving but paper checks or manual reviews sitting in queue until a staff member returns. If you’re under audit or review, most audits, appeals, and case reviews will pause. However, this is temporary and taxpayers should continue locating essential documentation and may relieve the pressure for a short-period of time. If you owe taxes or are on a payment plan, collection may slow but interest and penalties will continue to accrue. If you’re facing enforcement or levy action, some automated notices may continue and system-related levies can still be issued. It is important to have updated contact information while closely monitoring your bank accounts.
Why IRS workforce changes matter
The IRS has been making real progress after years of backlog and underfunding which make the current furloughs detrimental in terms of minimizing such progress as it relates to: 2024 tax returns currently being corrected for credits and amended filings, reducing the effectiveness of the “Zero Paper Initiative” and making physical mailrooms critical, and continuing to reduce the size of the IRS workforce which has been decreased by approximately 20% since the pandemic.
This could cause major challenges for the 2026 tax year in regards to the processing of refunds, appeals, and even resolution of taxpayer disputes could be delayed for months.
Action Plan
We believe the best course of action for taxpayers is to stay proactive by keeping your filings, estimated payments, and documentation up to date. Your obligations are not paused while IRS action might be delayed. Be sure to document every communication attempt which includes mailings, faxed correspondence, and proof of submission. Don’t stop resolving issues. Attorneys and tax professionals can still work toward voluntary resolutions, prepare offers, or negotiate with automated systems. This downtime is an opportunity to get your case file in perfect shape. Call your trusted tax attorney to protect your financial future today. Lastly, be careful in relying on misinformation regarding waived penalties or tax holidays. The law doesn’t stop because the telephones do.
Final Thoughts
The IRS furloughs highlight the fragility of our tax infrastructure and pose as a reminder that IRS sits at the center of U.S. fiscal health. The IRS is constantly subject to political turmoil which further support the need for all taxpayers to build resilience into your tax strategy by staying digital wherever possible, keeping clean and accessible records, and planning for response delays when timing is essential.
If your tax matter is time-sensitive or if you’re uncertain how the furloughs might affect your case, we highly recommend not to wait until the IRS reopens. Seek guidance now and develop a proactive plan which may make the difference between a delayed response and a missed opportunity. We are here to help and invite you to call our firm today!
