Agency worksheets
To assist in preparing your remittance submission, you may wish to print blank copies of each agency page to use as a worksheet. To do so, go to each agency page and click the "Print this page" link at the top of the page. You'll then have an original set of worksheets that can be photocopied for future use.

"Authorization Name" field on File & Pay page
Type the name of the person authorized to sign checks for your office.

Banking information
The following is an example of where to find the routing number (sometimes referred to as ABA number, Routing/Transit Number, R/T Number, Bank Routing Number) and account number on your paper check.

Change Clerk's name
Should you need to change the name of the Clerk, please fax a request to the e-Services Unit explaining the reason for the change and include official documentation to substantiate the change.

Change your password
Fax a written request to change your password. Include your Business Partner Number, your old password and your new password request. Passwords can be alpha, numeric or any combination, and must be eight (8) characters/digits in length. Fax requests to e-Services at 850-922-5088 (Suncom 292-5088).

"Clear this Page" functionality
This button should be used if you want to reset all totals on the current page to zero. No data will be stored.

Contact information on File & Pay page
Fill in the name, phone number and e-mail address of the person responsible for submitting the revenue remittance. This will be the person the Department contacts if problems occur with the transmission/payment.

Correcting a previous submission
As soon as you determine that a submission has been made in error (i.e., funds entered on incorrect line, incorrect amount of funds entered, etc.), contact the Department of Revenue. Our Refunds & Distribution Process will gladly facilitate the correction. If the error involved your bank routing and account number, see, "Replacing a failed electronic payment."

Deadlines for Submission
For Documentary Stamps, Class C Intangible Tax and Additional Court Costs, you must submit your return and payment before 5:00 pm, ET, on the sixth business day following the end of the week (Monday through Friday) during which the tax was collected. Example: Collection week was the 4th through the 8th; filing and payment must be submitted before 5:00 pm, ET, on Monday, the 18th, given no state or banking holidays.

For all other collected fines and fees, you must remit your payment information and amount before 5:00 pm, ET, on the 24th day of the month following the month of collection. By administrative code, these remittances are due on the 25th of the month; therefore transmission must take place by the cutoff time on the business day before. If the 24th falls on a weekend or state or bank holiday, you must submit your payment before 5:00 pm, ET, on the business day prior to the 24th.

For your records
During your session, you may wish to print each agency page as you complete it. Upon submission of the remittance information and payment request, you will receive a confirmation page showing date and time of submission, a summary of taxes, fines and fees remitted and banking information. You should print this page before exiting. You will not be able to access the agency pages or the confirmation page after you have exited.

Follow these procedures to replace the payment and clear the liability:

1. Call the Department at the number shown on the notice, or the Returned Items unit at 850-410-4461 (Suncom 210-4461).
2. Request that the additional charge be waived, as you are a governmental entity.
3. Notify the Department that you have already replaced, or will be replacing the payment electronically.
4. Use the Clerk of Court Revenue Remittance System to resubmit the payment. Never write a check.
5. Click on the "Returned Item Repayment" tab.
6. Enter the last date of the original collection period and the total amount of the original payment. Do not re-enter the remittance line items that accompanied the original payment.
7. Provide your banking and contact information and submit the replacement payment.

Retrieving stored remittance information
If you have saved and logged out during an earlier session, you can resume your session by simply logging back in. You will see the following message once you login again:
"** THIS REPRESENTS PREVIOUSLY SAVED DATA. **" you will not be able to begin another remittance session before you complete the saved session.

"Save & Logout" functionality
You may save your remittance information and return later to complete and submit it. When you are ready to end your session, click the "Save and Logout" button at the bottom of any agency page. Your information will be stored for 30 days for later retrieval.
