You May Be Held Responsible for Not Paying Taxes
If a corporation fails to withhold taxes to the IRS, then the individuals responsible for paying those taxes are held personally accountable. The IRS will hold as many people responsible as they can and many people are surprised to know they are being held responsible. Corporate entities will not protect them. People held responsible for withholding taxes may include:
- People with signatory authority on the corporate checking account
- People responsible for seeing to it that the corporation pays its bills
- Chief financial officers
- Corporate officers
- Shareholders
People with Signatory Authority on the Corporate Checking Account
Some business owners list their spouse and children as authorized signatories on corporate checking accounts as a precaution should they meet an untimely demise or should something happen to incapacitate them. If you or someone in your company fails to pay trust fund taxes, your spouse and children may be held personally responsible, even if they have nothing to do with the company.
