Owe The State Money? Take Advantage Of Amnesty Program

September 28, 2010

Do you owe the State of Florida money? The state is giving you a chance to settle up without penalties and with reduced interest — if you hurry.

Errant or forgetful taxpayers have until Thursday to save a little money if they pay their state taxes under an amnesty program courtesy of the Department of Revenue. The program allows taxpayers who owe money to the state as of July 1 a chance to avoid penalties and reduce the interest charges on outstanding tax bills.

“For taxpayers who owe taxes or who may have made a mistake in the past, tax amnesty is a chance to pay taxes owed to the state and save money,” Lisa Echeverri, Executive Director, Florida Department of Revenue, said in a statement.
