More than 1 million Californians did not file a 2012 state income tax return!
Sacramento – Last year, the FTB collected more than $727 million dollars through their diligent campaign to find people who did not file!
The FTB receives more than 400 million income records from bank, employers, state departments, the IRS and other sources.
This program is designed to find wage earners and self-employed who did not file – it also tracks down other nonfilers through sources such as occupational licenses and mortgage interest payments.
If contacted, you have 30 days to file or to show why one isn’t due. For those who do not respond, the FTB will issue a tax assessment using income records to estimate the amount of state tax due. It will include interest, fees and penalties. If you get a letter, contact us immediately. Do not wait. Do not hesitate. Call us at 619-589-8680.
The FTB administers two of CA’s major tax programs – Personal Income Tax and Corporation Tax. They take their job seriously and are responsible for collecting more than 65% of California’s general fund. For more information visit taxes.ca.gov.
