[accordion title=’FICA Tip Tax – H.R. 1349′]
The Small Business Tax Fairness and Compliance Simplification Act, known as the FICA Tax Tip Fairness legislation, would extend a dollar-for-dollar tip tax credit to owners of salons, spas and barbershops along with tax compliance updates that would streamline tip reporting and level the playing field for ISBN members.
