What’s in it

AI summary People who must file sales and use tax returns electronically will no longer have their paperwork counted as filed if they use the wrong format. If someone needs to use a different method, they can ask the director of the Department of Revenue for permission. The department also has the power to create new rules for how these filings are handled.¹

Why it matters. Taxpayers who are required to file sales and use tax returns electronically must use the specific format required by the Department of Revenue or their return will not be considered filed. These taxpayers may request permission from the director of the Department of Revenue to use a different filing method.²
