Can TaxJar AutoFile overdue returns?
At this time, we are optimized to AutoFile returns that are currently due, and we won't automatically go back and AutoFile returns from previous filing periods.
If you are enrolled in AutoFile and have overdue returns in states where AutoFile is offered, TaxJar can file returns from previous filing periods in every state upon request, for $65 per return, after you have successfully enrolled in AutoFile.
- If you are not enrolled in AutoFile, you can go back and file returns from a previous filing period yourself using your TaxJar reports for those states. Note: TaxJar's expected sales tax due report will show you an estimate of what you may owe for the past due filing period, but won't estimate any penalties or interest fees that the state may add.
If you have enrolled in AutoFile for the state where you have un-filed returns for past filing periods and you'd like us to file a past due return, please send your request to support@taxjar.com, along with the state name and the filing periods you would like TaxJar to file.
- Once your request is received, a member of the AutoFile team will provide details about the overdue process.
- You will need to review and confirm these details prior to scheduling your overdue request.
When your overdue return is filed, the state may assess further penalties and interest in addition to the sales taxes owed. TaxJar will AutoFile the amount the state calculates.
