VOLUNTARY DISCLOSURES & REMITTANCES

Jurisdictions are aggressively enforcing their respective unclaimed property laws through the use of their own auditors or by engaging third-party audit firms. It is in an organization’s best interest to address non-compliance or under-compliance “voluntarily” and avoid the administrative and financial burden of an examination and resulting assessment. By coming forward voluntarily, an organization is commonly afforded the benefits of a shorter look-back period and an abatement of interest and penalties.
