Post by: whitewater on July 11, 2013, 04:27:50 PM
A customer thinks they should only pay 3% instead of the 8% sales tax...

here is the link he sent...http://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/memos/sales/m12_3s.pdf (http://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/memos/sales/m12_3s.pdf)

I forwarded it to my accountant...

Even if you got it back, it's not legally yours, you charged it as tax, you'd owe your customers that money.  Legally and all.

If you did try they would most likley fine you for over taxing. Just leave it alone.

Sam, no sales tax on apparel. That would be nice.
