Explanation
The IRS generally requires records to be kept for at least three years from the date a return was filed, though six to seven years is the practical standard for businesses.
Strong recordkeeping supports tax deductions, defends against audits, validates lender stipulations, and powers accurate bookkeeping.
Examples
- •Digital receipts attached to transactions
- •Signed vendor contracts
- •Loan and credit agreements
- •Insurance policies and certificates
