Department of Revenue Public List of Delinquent Taxpayers When initial attempts to collect unpaid taxes and penalties fail, a legal document called a warrant for unpaid taxes if filed with the county court. When the warrant is filed, it becomes a lien. The Department of Revenue created a Public List of Delinquent Taxpayers and posted it on the agency’s Internet site for public access. The site contains two lists: one for Western Washington and one for Eastern Washington. The warrants are for liabilities $5,000 or greater and the taxpayer has not made a satisfactory repayment agreement. Results ★ By notifying taxpayers prior to their inclusion on the Internet list, 79 businesses made satisfactory payment agreements to avoid the internet listing. ★ 23 accounts paid in full, over $411,000, to avoid being on the Internet listing. ★ Provides the public a list of businesses owing the state large tax liabilities. ★ Internet listing encourages timely payment of taxes for businesses wanting to avoid public scrutiny of their tax problems by their customers or creditors.

Department of Revenue Local Sales and Use Tax Publications Re-engineering Department of Revenue (DOR) publishes compilations of local sales and use tax distributions every other month. Costs and staff time are involved to format, print, and mail six editions of Local Tax Distributions each year. Lag times associated with publication cause delays in getting current information to customers. Research Division team members identified opportunities to improve response times and decrease costs by putting tables on the DOR Internet site as soon as they are available and reducing the frequency of paper reports to once a year. Historical data for multiple years will be on the site as well for the customer to build their own table. Results ★ Reduced Local Tax Distributions publication frequency, gives direct cost savings of $11,250 annually in printing and postage. ★ Eliminated up to two months delay in getting tax distribution information to customers. ★ Less staff time expended on special data requests for historical data and for customized tables.
