Important tax details.

Throughout the year, many of you will be filing a Sales Tax Adjustment form to obtain a refund of overpaid sales tax or remit additional sales tax to Amway Global which will be forwarded to a taxing jurisdiction. The Sales Tax Dept. reviews all of the forms received and has compiled the list below of frequent errors that cause a delay in processing.
