Tax Assistance Available For Businesses Affected By Inclement Weather Conditions
2/12/2010
CHARLESTON, W.V.—Governor Joe Manchin and State Tax Commissioner Christopher G. Morris announced today that businesses located in West Virginia counties that were recently affected by inclement weather conditions, thus delaying the business owner’s ability to file and remit taxes on time, are encouraged to contact the Tax Commissioner’s office for assistance.
“The safety and health of our citizens is our primary concern. We want businesses in the devastated counties to reopen as soon as it is safe to possibly do so,” Governor Manchin said. “We understand the challenges business owners are facing and are willing to work with those affected by the weather conditions so they may avoid penalties and fees for late tax filings.”
For all other vendors, who were not affected by recent snowstorms, tax filings and remittances are due at the designated due dates.
“If an affected Taxpayer receives a penalty notice for the February reporting period, the Taxpayer should contact my office,” Tax Commissioner Morris said.
The Tax Commissioner’s office may be reached at 304-558-0751.
