Kwong COVID Penalty Review
A time-sensitive review of COVID-era penalty positions in light of evolving tax authority developments — evaluate before the window narrows.
COVID-era penalty positions are being re-examined in light of newer authority.
Many businesses paid failure-to-deposit, late-filing, and late-payment penalties assessed during the COVID period without engaging their reasonable-cause posture.
Evolving guidance and case developments have re-opened the analysis for a defined universe of taxpayers. The review window is not indefinite.

As each quarter passes, additional COVID-era periods fall outside the refund window entirely.
