The COST Annual Meeting offers two and a half days of sessions for every state tax professional and government affairs professionals with tax responsibilities.  Attendees will include COST Practitioner Connection subscribers, tax policy and government affairs professionals, and COST members and non-members industry tax professionals.  The extensive program will cover all types of state and local taxes that business taxpayers are confronted with today.  In addition to the ever popular audit sessions and chamber of commerce roundtables, conference topics will range from income/franchise, property and sales & use taxes to payroll & employment tax and unclaimed property issues.  Please note that all attendees are welcome to attend any session except for the Audit Sessions and Committee Meetings.  These sessions, as always, are open to COST industry member professionals only.

The goal of this program is to bring multistate tax professionals, who have various levels of experience in all types of state and local taxes, together in a group live environment that allows for extensive interaction and exchange of information as well as updates on key SALT issues and insights regarding state tax trends and opportunities.  The program level is an overview and no advanced preparation is needed.
