SEARCH TIPS
Tip: Search Results are returned in relevance-ranked order by default. Use the Advanced Search Form date range (second radio button) "in the last week", "in the last 90 days", "in the last year", etc. to narrow your search results to more current documents. You may want to specify a from and to date range if you're seeking older documents.
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR NEW STAR USERS
    The STAR System is intended to be used as a research system only. Documents in this system may assist you in general interpretations of tax policy issues. Specific facts relevant to your situation may change the taxability of any issue. Please contact the Tax Policy Division at tax.help@cpa.state.tx.us if you need a ruling on a specific tax issue.
    STAR now contains over 25,000 documents and the database is growing daily. If you should have any problems retrieving a particular document, please include the document's accession number in an email to star.taxhelp@cpa.state.tx.us. The document will be returned to you via email, fax, or regular mail.
    Finally, we hope this system will substantially benefit your tax research needs. We have made a tremendous effort to provide you with an accurate and up-to-date document collection. In regard to superseded documents, unless the document contains a summary explaining which issues in the document are superseded, the entire document is considered to no longer represents current policy. If you have any questions or concerns about a document in this system, please contact Tax Policy Division at star.taxhelp@cpa.state.tx.us.
