# I just got a filing frequency change notice, what should I do?

States that are not a part of the [SST program](/articles/what-is-streamlined-sales-tax-sst-and-do-they-cover-taxcloud-services-6iV6ycHRCp) will sometimes assess your sales tax liability and issue a change in the frequency in which you are required to submit your sales tax liability to the state. If you get a filing frequency change notice, here is what to do:

## What if my filing frequency changes?

If you receive a notification from the state, **send a copy of the notice to the TaxCloud Support team via email or chat.** The team will ensure the filing frequency is updated and your returns are filed on time.

* **Notices must be sent to TaxCloud before the end of the filing period to ensure on-time filing.**
  * Ex) If you receive a notice indicating that the filing frequency is changing to monthly, and the first month at the monthly frequency is for the *May filing period,* then you must notify TaxCloud by *May 31st* to guarantee on-time filing for the May period.

## What is my filing frequency?

Once you have registered for a sales tax license, the state will designate the frequency with which you are required to submit your returns. The filing frequency can be monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, depending on the regulations of each state and your sales volume.

* It is important to adhere to the filing frequency assigned to your sales tax account.
* If you attempt to submit a return and payment using a schedule that does not match your state-assigned filing frequency, the state may assess penalty and interest fees on to your account.
* You may also be required to amend and correct previous filings.

## What if I do not know when my filing frequency is?

If you've registered for a sales tax license and you're not sure of your frequency, reach out to the state's DoR to confirm your filing frequency. We provide the contact for the [State DoRs in this article](/articles/how-to-speak-to-a-member-of-each-states-dor-K1TdADTpvW).
