BILL NUMBER:S4668
Title of bill
An act to amend the tax law, in relation to exempting certain wineries from the requirement to file annual information returns
Purpose
This bill exempts non-farm wineries who produce less than 150,000 gallons annually from filing annual information returns regarding their transactions with sales tax vendors.
Summary of provisions
Amends chapter 108 of the Laws of 2012 by adding language to exempt limited production wineries from filing annual information returns regarding their transactions with sales tax vendors.
Justification
The 2009-10 Revenue Budget Bill (Chapter 57 of the Laws of 2009) enacted various tax compliance initiatives. One of the initiatives mandates the filing of annual information returns by certain third parties that do business with sales tax vendors. Information that needs to be reported include general information (such as vendor's name, phone number etc) and more labor intensive information, such as total monthly sales amounts to each vendor exclusive of total amounts for deposit and returns. In order to complete these information returns, valuable time and resources will be needed to compile and submit it on time. In 2012, farm wineries were exempted from this requirement but non- farm wineries are still burdened by this section of law. This bill would give small non-farm wineries the same exemption from filing.
