INCORRECT DATE PRINTED ON TPT-1 FORM

Attention Business TPT filers; in January 2012 the TPT1 form was printed with incorrect Period End date of September 30, 2011.  This was mailed to monthly and quarterly filers.

Quarterly Filer; please discard the quarterly TPT-1.  In March you will receive the correct TPT-1 for the Quarter ending March 31, 2012.

Monthly Filer; you can discard the TPT-1 and download a blank TPT-1 from our website at www.azdor.gov.  Or, you can use the TPT-1 you received, however you must make corrections to the tax period dates to reflect the correct January reporting period of 01/01/2012 to 01/31/2012.  In Part 2 of TPT-1, verify you have entered the correct Business Description, Region Code, Business Class, Tax Rate, and applicable accounting credit if any.

NOTE:  If your city had a new tax rate that became effective between October 1, 2011 and January 1, 2012, be sure to verify you have correctly reported that information on your TPT-1.  Current tax rate tables are available on our website.
