I recently wrote a post about my company’s receipt of a letter mandating participation in California’s electronic tax payment program. Two weeks following receipt of that letter I received a call from someone at the FTB acknowledging that my company really shouldn’t have to enroll in that program. Apparently someone (or some business) has been erroneously using the wrong corporation number. I was told that I would not receive an official “I don’t have to enroll” letter but that I didn’t.
End of story?
Not hardly. This past week I received another letter from the FTB again mandating my enrollment in the program. I was mildly amused, but I wrote a letter (sent certified mail) to the FTB. I’ll keep you posted.
