Tax on Shipping in Certain States?

[heat123]

Before using P3, in PP -my orders were not taxed on "shipment". I heard somewhere that some states were void from tax on shipping fees and I thought CA was one of those states?

I could be wrong but anyways I just noticed that since using P3 shipping was taxed? Just wanted to confirm that this is correct for CA we can be taxed on shipping or not, or how do I go about finding out? TIA!

Heather,

You can check the back of your receipts for this info. It is in the block about shipping and handling.

Just to let you know shipping and handling charges are taxable in all states except: AK,DC,DE,IA, ID,IL,MA,MT,NH,OH,OK,OR,UT AND WY.

Yes in CA we do tax the $4. On PP you had to enter yes or no on that issue. P# does it automatically. It is taxed because it is shipping and handling, (which the state taxes)

I was confused about that for a little while.With Previous Product Line and Certain Other Product Line that Friends Sold, they always taxed shipping. Now with PC, they don't do that in OH.Most people round up, so it's mostly not a big deal.

I noticed the same thing with another DS company in my state. PC doesn't tax the shipping but the other company did.

I really don't like the write-in order forms because of this. I always have guests total up their own order, they always add tax to the shipping because that's how the form is and they always charge themselves direct shipping charges! If I catch them, I do try to say something before they get the whole form filled out.
