The report might also indicate a business that the Comptroller's records show as being "inactive" that is actually "active".

The report can also bring to light businesses that are operating which are not shown on the report. If there are any, contact the Tax Allocation Section, Revenue Accounting Division, toll free at (800) 531-5441, ext. 3-4530.

If your city shares a boundary with another city, or if your county or district boundary divides a city, make sure the businesses on this list are in fact within your boundaries and not in another city, county, or district.

Also, make sure all active businesses within your boundaries are actually on this list. This is to make sure sales taxes are being allocated properly.

Description:

• This report lists taxpayers identified in a specific group along with the aggregate total amount of local sales tax revenue the group contributed to the jurisdiction’s total allocation for the period requested. Audit payments are not included.
• The report may be requested by jurisdiction code, zip code, or for a specific group of taxpayers and it may be requested for a specified allocation month date range.

There are usually two separate reports for each area. One report lists the businesses that file by the outlet method of reporting and one report lists the businesses that file by the city list method of reporting. Amounts for the list filers are determined by using a reasonable scientific method based on state data reported for that outlet.

Specific Data:

• taxpayer number
• outlet number
• business name
• business address
• aggregate total tax payment

Requirements:

• Requester must provide the jurisdiction name and/or zip code, taxpayer identification and outlet numbers, and the allocation month date range. Zip code listings may be obtained from our office in a paper format or in an Excel spreadsheet to help identify the taxpayer and outlet numbers needed.
• Once the report is set up, the requester will be responsible for monitoring the listing of taxpayers and identifying any taxpayers that need to be added or deleted.

Comments:

Total payment information cannot be released if there are less than four businesses on either report. In this case, you will receive a combined total for both reports.
