Time is running out for delinquent taxpayers in Alabama to take advantage of Operation Clean Slate - Alabama's tax amnesty program. The program began Feb. 1 and will end May 15, 2009.
As stated in a News Release on April 22, 2009, individuals and businesses that voluntarily come forward and file past-due returns or amend their returns to properly report their Alabama tax liabilities will not face penalties or prosecution. This program, however, is not available to persons who are already under investigation by the Alabama Department of Revenue (ADOR) or who have been contacted by the ADOR regarding their proper tax liability.
Operation Clean Slate is available to almost all taxpayers and for all tax types. The program applies to individual and corporate income taxes, business privilege tax, and if unregistered with the DOR, sales and use taxes.
Individuals and businesses wanting to take advantage of this program can send their delinquent or amended tax returns to:
Alabama Department of Revenue, P.O. Box 327010, Montgomery, AL 36132-7070.
If you have any questions, you can access the Operation Clean Slate website at: www.revenue.alabama.gov/cleanslate.html, or call 866-326-6755 or 334-242-1055.
