FAQs
Are returns filed for $0 considered a filing and subject the to filing fee?
Yes, when TaxCloud's Filing Team prepares and submits a filing for your business, it is treated the same as if it were prepared and filed with a tax liability greater than $0. The work of preparing and filing is the same.
What is a Premium Filing Fee?
Premium Filings are much more labor intensive and complex. You'll see this fee associated with filings for Louisiana & Colorado (not the CO RDF filing)
When does TaxCloud bill for filings
You'll see the filings on the invoice following the month in which the filings were submitted to the states.
Example: Two standard filings are submitted on May 19th, for April's sales. The next invoice in June will contain Standard Filings: $39 x 2 = $78
I see Washington in the SST states that file for free for Premium users, why do I also see Washington B&O below with the standard filings?
In the state of Washington, businesses encounter two main types of taxes: sales taxes and Business and Occupation (B&O) taxes. While both are forms of taxation, they serve different purposes and are administered differently. The WA B&O as a separate tax, incurs the $39 standard filing fee as it is not part of Business Sales & Use tax covered by the SST program. Read more about WA B&O here.
