File overdue returns

TaxJar is not designed to go back and automatically file past due returns, but you have two options for getting overdue returns filed.

Request TaxJar to file on your behalf

Send your request to support@taxjar.com, along with the specific states and past filing periods needed. Once your request is received, a member of the TaxJar filing team will reach out to you with details about the overdue returns process.

File the returns yourself

If you'd prefer to file overdue returns on your own, start by reviewing your Filing Report:

  1. Open the TaxJar app in the Stripe Dashboard. On Enrollments, select the state. Select Manage enrollment on TaxJar. A new window will open. 
  2. Select Dashboard from the top navigation bar
  3. Select the corresponding state tile from your Dashboard - this will open up your TaxJar Reports
  4. Toggle to the correct period to find the Filing Report for the overdue period.
  5. Review the report to ensure the data is accurate. Note that only transactions with Stripe Tax enabled will import to TaxJar for filing.
  6. Once you've confirmed your data, follow the state-specific filing instructions:  How to file sales tax in each state.

If you have any questions about this process, reach out to support@taxjar.com.
