1. Make sure that your tax return is filed accurately and on time. Double check all numbers to ensure their accuracy.
2. Include all relevant documents, such as W-2 forms and 1099-MISC forms, when filing your tax return.
3. To avoid processing delays, ensure that the names and Social Security numbers of employees are correctly entered on the W-2 forms.
4. Ensure that you are consistently accounting for expenses so they can be properly documented in the event of an audit.
5 Avoid making mistakes like not classifying certain employees as independent contractors (something the IRS is particularly tough on lately).
6. Keep meticulous records relating to business expenses, income, payroll taxes etcetera.
7 Report any suspicious activity or cash transactions of over $10K to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (www.fincen.gov). 
8 Use a qualified accountant/CPA when filing complicated tax returns that involve multiple states or businesses entities; this will reduce possibilities of errors.

By following these tips you’ll be able to reduce your chances of being audited and ensure peace of mind!
