"I've been filing my taxes with Dimov for the past four years. Each year the taxes have gotten more and more complicated and I've never had any issues with the work Dimov has done for me. Importantly they are extremely quick to respond to emails. The price is incredibly reasonable for the level of service. I have also had a paid consulting call with Dimov that was fruitful. They give good advice." - Chris

San Francisco Apportions Gross Receipts by Business Activity Category

The Homelessness Gross Receipts Tax isn’t a line item inside the main gross receipts tax. It’s a separate calculation with its own threshold. High-revenue businesses frequently discover this at year-end. The gross receipts tax itself uses payroll-based apportionment for specific activity categories, so where your employees work changes what the city taxes. Our CPA in San Francisco covers the full city stack, filed against the correct agency on the right calendar: Gross receipts The homelessness surcharge Business registration renewal

The FTB Follows San Francisco Income After You Leave

The FTB follows the income, not the address. RSUs that vested while you lived in California stay taxable here after you move. California’s Behavioral Health Services Tax adds 1% on taxable income above one million dollars, on top of the standard rate. Since 2024, the SDI wage cap no longer exists. Every dollar of salary, bonus, and RSU income now carries it. The combined exposure hits three groups hardest: Founders at liquidity events W-2 earners with large vesting schedules Part-year residents with California-source income they didn’t plan to report

Two Agencies, One Gap, One San Francisco CPA Team

The city and the FTB operate independent systems. A clean state return tells the FTB nothing about the San Francisco gross receipts filing. The penalty for missing the city’s Homelessness Gross Receipts Tax accrues separately. No prompt comes from Sacramento. Our licensed CPAs and Enrolled Agents in San Francisco work both systems in parallel, not sequentially. This gap doesn’t close itself.
