PURPOSE:

Section 213.755(1), F.S., authorizes the Executive Director of the Department of Revenue to require a taxpayer to file returns and remit payments by electronic means when the amount of tax paid by the taxpayer in the previous state fiscal year was more than $20,000. Effective January 1, 2023, Chapter 2022-151, L.O.F., reduces the electronic filing threshold for a taxpayer to file returns and remit payments from $20,000 to $5,000. The purpose of this rulemaking is to implement this law change.

SUMMARY:

Beginning January 1, 2023, the proposed amendments to Rule 12B-6.005, F.A.C., incorporate the reduced electronic filing threshold of $5,000 requiring the electronic filing of tax returns and electronic payment of tax. Form DR-133 (Gross Receipts Tax Return) is revised to notify taxpayers of the lowered threshold amount requiring taxpayers to file the return and pay the tax by electronic means.
