Audit Information
Finance can request additional information from a business if we select a tax return to audit. The audit may result in more tax due or a reduction of a refund. The decision can be appealed.
Filing Information
All Business Taxes must be filed and paid by the due date. Filing requirements and deadlines, tax rates, and other information may be different for each tax type. Late filing or late payment may result in the addition of interest and penalties.

Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program

If accepted into the program, Finance may waive penalties and can adjust tax payments for some periods. This program may not be available after a business is first contacted by Finance.
