Blue Bullet Point GraphicTax Types & Descriptions
Finance works closely with New York State to administer business income and excise taxes.  Each has its own tax forms, rates, and filing deadlines.

Blue Bullet Point GraphicFiling Information
All business taxes must be filed and paid by the legal due date. Filing requirements and deadlines, tax rates, and other important  information may be different for each tax type. Late filing or late payment will result in the addition of interest and penalties.

Blue Bullet Point GraphicNYC Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program
Businesses that have not filed tax returns for certain periods (non-filers) may wish to join the Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program.  Once in the program, Finance will waive all penalties and may adjust tax payments for some periods. Acceptance into this program may not be available once a business is initially contacted by Finance.

Blue Bullet Point GraphicNotices
Finance sends notices to taxpayers for many required reasons.  These include letters for tax due, late payment, and audit notification.

Blue Bullet Point GraphicAppeals
A taxpayer who is audited or applies for a refund and does not agree with the findings has a number of appeal options. There are many ways to appeal within and outside of Finance. These include an Exit Conference, Conciliation Conference, and a Tax Appeals Tribunal Hearing (click on “Appeals” link above for descriptions).

Blue Bullet Point GraphicRefunds
A business tax refund is available if an overpayment has been made.  If you request a refund, please note each business tax has its own form.  Be sure to submit the correct one.

This involves the voluntary disclosure of certain tax-avoidance transactions (commonly called "tax shelters"). NY State Voluntary Compliance Initiative (VCI) taxpayers can report the same information to Finance.  Penalties and criminal prosecution in connection with these transactions can be avoided if businesses participate in the program.
