GILROY – Did you remember to pay you tax last year?
Whether you really forgot to or not, The Franchise Tax Board is now contacting nearly 600,00 Californians who failed to file their 2002 state income tax returns.
The FTB’s filing program targets people who earned California income, but did not file a state income tax return. This program collected nearly $370 million dollars last year.
“During these difficult financial times, everyone needs to pay their taxes and play by the rules,” stated State Controller and FTB Chair Steve Westly.
The Web site for those who receive notices from the FTB is www.ftb.ca.gov/inc.
There, people can request more time to respond, retrieve information that can assist them in filing a tax return, learn about payment options, request tax forms, correct a misreported social security number and get answers to questions concerning the notices.
