When South Dakota won their court case against Wayfair, Inc., in 2018, most states changed their sales tax rules. Before the ruling, a business needed to have a physical presence in a location to collect sales tax. Now, each state can stipulate their own rules and many of them have done so. The idea behind the court case was that states were losing sales-tax revenue to online retailers. The case allowed states to put the responsibility on the businesses and force them to collect and submit sales tax based on the location where the item is delivered.
Colorado also changed collection of sales tax to where the item is delivered when House Bill 19-1240 was passed. Unless you are a small business with less than $100,000 in sales, this now applies to you. Colorado has one of the most complicated sales tax systems in the U.S. Did you know some cities span more than one county which means there are different tax rates based on the address? With 64 counties and over 420 cities, each with their own tax rate. For a small business owner, that is a lot to keep track of.
Our Sales Tax Services Include:
• Making sure QuickBooks© has each state, county and city tax item and group set up correctly
• Determining if you should be reporting monthly, quarterly or annually. Each entity you file with will be different
• Setting up online reporting whenever possible
• Reviewing your sales tax liabilities to make sure everything is current
• Filing each state and local report
• Setting up new jurisdictions at the state and city level when new customer's are added in locations not already set up

We have been working with In The Black Bookkeeping for approximately twelve years. During that time Tanya has proven to be highly professional, with tremendous attention to detail and a dedication to our business that is unusual even for an employee. She has consistently gone above and beyond doing just what was required, she routinely offers suggestions for improvement which in fact improve things, she is highly responsive and there when you need her. We at NEWAVE Sensor Solutions, LLC can recommend Tanya and her services without any hesitation. She is a very valuable part of our Team.
Tanya came to us from a solid recommendation and has proved her worth exponentially with her extensive knowledge, ethical practices and enjoyable demeanor. If you have a need for a bookkeeper, do yourself a favor and talk to Tanya. I cannot speak highly enough about her
Thanks to Tanya, I don't worry about my books (and thats about the only thing I don't worry about) Tanya is efficient, professional and reliable.
We have used In The Black Bookeeping for the past 5 years. We could not be more pleased with Tanya's work. She is extremely honest, dependable and knowledgeable. She has not only done everything we asked, but has gone above and beyond in assisting with situations we didn't even know existed. I would highly recommend her services to anyone!
Tanya has handled all of my personal and professional finances for over five years and I have found her to be extremely competent, trustworthy, and a consummate professional in everything she does. I would recommend her highly if you need someone to can handle the financial side of your enterprise so you can focus on serving your clients and growing your business.
Tanya has been a godsend for our family. Since my mom’s rapid decline with dementia, Tanya has compassionately and expertly taken over my parents’ books. Her ability to get all of their accounts “straightened out” and ready for anything is stellar! She is always available to answer questions and address our concerns professionally and efficiently. We love Tanya!
It is my pleasure to strongly recommend Tanya Bergstrom and “In the Black Bookkeeping” as a reliable, professional resource to assist with your business accounting, sales tax and other clerical needs. Initially, we asked Tanya to help with our monthly sales tax filings. Over the past five years we’ve increasingly relied on her expertise to assist with other challenges. Tanya was instrumental in getting our sales taxes converted to the new reporting and collection rules, working through the endless changes from the state and local municipalities. This was a monumental effort and has been practically seamless in implementation and execution. We also needed some assistance with the PPP loan application and reporting, and “In the Black Bookkeeping” was a valuable resource to ensure we fully understood and complied with all requirements. In addition, when our long-time payroll specialist retired, Tanya was able to easily assume the role and provide us with the same diligence and accuracy we were accustomed to. From my perspective, the most important qualities in a Bookkeeping service are accuracy, timeliness, integrity, and a tenacious determination to work through any barriers. Tanya provides all of this, along with a pleasant disposition and an honest concern for our business. I highly recommend Tanya and “In the Black Bookkeeping” without reservation.
