That helps, however, it clearly mentions it handles 24 states. What about the other 26 states? Also will it remain free. Remember ATM’s were free when they started out too.
First of all, it *automatically files* sales taxes for 24 states.
It can tell you the sales tax rates for *all* states and localities. The ability to automatically file sales taxes might (and probably) depends on the online infrastructure of various states.
Now, as to the totality of their coverage: first, there are five states that have no retail sales tax, so there are only 21 states where they won’t be able to file the sales tax return for you.
The legislation, as it now stands in the Senate, doesn’t mandate the collection of sales tax for online sales from out-of-state vendors. It permits states to start requiring payment of sales taxes.
If a state wants to start collecting said taxes, they’re going to have to make it easy to pay taxes. Taxes that aren’t easy to pay don’t get paid.
