Shopping Online? Make Sure You Pay Tax
Did you know you must pay "use tax" on items you buy tax-free outside Florida and bring or have delivered into this state? This applies to merchandise that would have been taxed if purchased in Florida. We have an easy online application you can use to report and pay taxes on Internet, catalog, and other out-of-state purchases.

2012 Unemployment Tax and Special Interest Assessment

Employers should be aware of changes relating to unemployment tax:

• Wages paid beginning with the calendar quarter January 1 - March 31, 2012, are taxable up to the first $8,500 per employee.
• An Unemployment Compensation Tax Rate Notice (UCT-20, R. 01/12) has been mailed to all employers. Use the rate on this notice when filing 2012 quarterly reports.
• A separate special interest assessment will be due in 2012 on funds borrowed from the federal government to pay unemployment compensation claims. The Department will notify employers of their share of the assessment by February 2012.

Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)
Many low-income working individuals and families qualify for this federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and do not claim it. You could pay less federal tax, pay no tax, or even get a tax refund if you claim this credit.

Child Support Computer System
We are moving to a new computer system to better serve our customers and get families the child support they need and deserve. We continue to provide child support services to our customers during this transition.
