Pennsylvania Third-Party Access (TPA) and Power of Attorney (POA) Requirements
Why is this necessary?
Beyond works directly with government agencies on your behalf by handling new hire reporting, calculating tax rates, submitting taxes and insurance contributions, and filing necessary financial documents. To perform these services properly, you must authorize us to represent your company with the tax authorities in every state where you have tax obligations.
For instance, if your business operates in both Pennsylvania and New York, you will need to complete and submit a Power of Attorney form for each state.
