Free Small Business Workshops in Massachusetts

If you live in Massachusetts and run a small business, the Department of Revenue will host a series of tax workshops over the summer. It's a chance for free tax advice from the Department (and if you live in Massachusetts, you may need it).

Once again, DOR will be offering free Small Business Workshops from May to August. These workshops are designed for the tax novice, and are intended for new business owners or those that are considering starting their own business.

Speakers will continue to provide the latest information on a wide array of topics, including, but not limited to WebFile for Business, sales and use taxes, meals tax, certificates and exemptions, and state information (registration, employment issues, new hire reporting, estimated income tax payments, filing and payment procedures, etc.). Attendees will also have the opportunity to ask questions regarding taxes that apply specifically to their business.

The Small Business Workshops will take place on the following dates and locations: May 3 (Boston), May 23 (Worcester), June 9 (West Barnstable), July 13 (Springfield) and August 10 (Andover).
