Got my franchise tax problem (discussed in a previous blog) worked out. I went to the comptroller's office on Hamlin. Apparently, I needed to file a franchise tax return for 2007. I did not think I had to as we weren't even selling a product during that year. But since I had formed the company in May 2007, I had to file a report to say zero income. I also needed to file a report about officers of the company...one has of these reports has to be filled out every year. I thought I only needed to file once and then refile if there were changes. Go figure!!!
Have a fantastic Friday everyone!!!
