SCOP teams do not visit home-based businesses and they never inquire about personal finances. The goal of the visits is “to educate retailers about properly reporting sales and use tax, increase compliance with tax laws, and maintain outreach efforts to assure taxpayers that the state’s tax system is fair and equal for all Californians.”
While the vast majority of businesses have thus far been found to be compliant, SCOP team visits have unearthed more than $2 billion in uncollected sales and use taxes since the program began in 2008.
