With ever-changing federal and state legislative 1099 regulatory requirements, any organization that is not knowledgeable and the staff and business areas not prepared to comply with complex regulations could face significant financial risk and the possibility that you may be required to make a public disclosure of the risk.
Any person who has responsibility for 1099 and state reporting is required to be up to date on all current regulations. The penalties and risks associated with non-compliance are onerous, and the burden is on you and your organization - not the IRS - to see that you are educated about regulatory updates. Ignorance of the law leaves you and your company exposed to costly penalties and legal fees.
Accurate payment reporting is a critical function in AP, and earning a certification in this area of accounts payable demonstrates to your employer that you are dedicated to achieving 100% compliance. Employees who have earned the CPRS designation can play a key role in ensuring accurate reporting and fine avoidance - improving the bottom line and increasing your value to the organization.
This online class will prepare you to tackle some of the biggest compliance challenges in payments reporting, including:
You will leave the course prepared and ready to take the Payment Reporting Specialist Certification exam. The exam can be taken immediately upon course completion or at a time that's more convenient for you (must be completed within one year of purchase). Upon passing the exam, you will earn your credential as a Certified Payment Reporting Specialist (CPRS).
