The Streamlined Sales Tax Initiative began as the Streamlined Sales Tax Project in 2000. This month (March 2008) marks the eighth year of the streamlined initiative, during which time numerous milestones have occurred. These milestones included:
- the adoption of the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement;
- the establishment of the Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board; and
- the adoption of the agreement provisions in over 20 states.
In 2007, there were significant changes made to the agreement as the Governing Board continues to influence tax administration and attract new states. The 2007 changes included a sourcing change affecting local sales tax on intrastate shipments, the adoption of a provision for the handling of digital products, the addition of a new state to the Governing Board, and the movement of associate states to full membership in 2008.
Join subject matter experts Charles Collins, Scott Peterson, and Charles Maniace as they review the changes in 2007 and how they affect tax administration. They will also explore the prospects of legislation in additional states and review the work expected in 2008 including the request by the business community to expand simplification to more areas and more taxpayers. |
