glad it all worked out for you tim. Hell even if you had to pay the tax you still saved money getting the work done there but that would not be right if they did charge you tax a year later.
Got a letter today. Could have been written by the blokes at CNN.
Dear Taxpayer (love being called what I really am to them...not citizen....taxpayer!)
Thank you for your response to our recent inquiry regarding the purchase of the above-referenced imported item. Based on the documentation/information provided, we have concluded that no Texas Use Tax is due on the imported item(s) and no further action is needed on your part.
We have concluded our investigation. However, should the facts change or if there are additional facts from those previously disclosed, our position could be different, and you will be held liable for all taxes due. There is no statute of limitations applicable to periods where taxes have not been filed.
If you have any questions....blah, blah, blah.
And then send it back to them and tell them you found some additional facts!Wipe your ass with that letter!
