AT&T up for a $27 million tax refund in Nev.
By Anjeanette Damon, Reno Gazette-Journal
AT&T is the business that has applied for a substantial sales and use tax refund, claiming it mistakenly paid Nevada taxes it owed other states, according to a statement released Saturday by the company’s Nevada president.
The company could receive as much as $27 million back over three years, which could create significant budget issues for local governments.
“The Department of Taxation is currently in the process of reviewing a claim submitted by AT&T,” said Stephanie Tyler, AT&T’s president for Nevada and the Pacific Northwest. “Until the department has had the opportunity to complete a thorough review of the claim, it would be premature for us to speculate or further comment on the matter.”
