Why its taking them so long to process tax refunds considering that tax filings and reporting has been pushed back?
District of Columbia Estimated Tax Payment Deadlines Remain Unchanged. For more information visit: https://otr.cfo.dc.gov/page/coronavirus.
Any extension on income tax returns originally due 4/15/2020?
If you selected your refund to be direct deposit, then why would you be sent a paper check?
Hello, when I call to get customer service for tax and revenue it drops after it says to stay on the line for customer service. Can I get another number that is not Phone: (202) 727-4829 that I can call instead?
On October 1st, convenience stores will need to sift through the ingredient list of every bottled drink (100's of different items) in order to see if the new 8% sales tax will need to be charged. For example, an unsweetened bottle of ice tea with zero calories does not get taxed while a bottle of artificially sweetened diet tea with zero calories gets charged the sales tax. Does a sweetened iced coffee have more or less than 50% coffee if coffee is the first ingredient? Huge burden on small business owners to figure this out.
PLEASE REFER TO MY MESSAGE SENT THIS DATE @ 1615 Hours JUNE 6, 2019 ASAP PLEASE!!!!
Been on hold for hour and 15 minutes waiting.. can someone try to explain this to me? why a business that sells h and crafted items at festivals maybe here and there, has to pay $375 a month for tax revenue? Thats more than these businesses make in a month.
Hi guys! You are holding my refund hostage pending an "identity verification", but your "identity verification" contractor won't give me a quiz, and you don't answer the phone at the number I'm supposed to call for help. What, precisely, do I need to do to actual get the refund you owe me?
Where the hell are our refunds
what does Your refund is now in a batch and refund cycle process mean?
