Has anyone had any issue with their state 'Use' tax?


I ordered several things off of Amazon last year and my orders did not include sales tax for my state. Does anyone have any experience with correcting this on their return?

I thought not having to pay sales tax was one of the benefits of amazon along with 2 day shipping?

technically you're supposed to file a sales and use tax return with the state of LA as well as the parish you reside in.

Yea I have several purchases from last year through Amazon that I am going to have to review. My state tax return was my saving grace on the hit I am getting from the federal tax return. The Use tax will claim a chunk of my state return due to all of my online shopping. Subscribing to Amazon Prime pretty much sealed the deal for all of my shopping last year to occur through Amazon.
