A Short Guide to Taxpayers
Taxpayer b/g
A taxpayer is the legal entity that bears an obligation to pay taxes. Taxpayers can be individuals, although a tax payer can also be a collection of individuals, such as those that combine to form partnerships, non-profit organizations or associations, trusts, government agencies, corporations, or business entities. Whether the taxpayer in question is an individual or an organization, however, the burden on taxpayers to discharge their debts to the government remains the same.
