Does Your Business Pay Taxes Using EFT ACH-Debit?

As of August 1, 2008 you can no longer use your old five-digit sales tax account number as the ID to log in to the EFT ACH-Debit payment system. You must use the first eleven digits (without the hyphen) of your new sales tax account number as your log in ID. When using the system for the first time with your new ID, you must use the temporary PIN you received in the mail.

2007 & 2008 Income Tax Differences

The tax year 2008 income tax calculations will be significantly different from tax year 2007. The Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel has prepared the following document discussing these differences in detail: "Fact Sheet – Changes to Utah's Individual Income Tax"

The Governor's Office has prepared a calculator allowing you to make a comparison of your 2007 and 2008 taxes.

The Senate Site webpage also has additional information on this subject.
