NOTE 1: Advisory Opinions marked "draft" are staff drafts and are not the position of the Department.
NOTE 2: A Temporary Revenue Ruling or Temporary Revenue Procedure is issued to provide immediate guidance due to time constraints and emerging issues. It is temporary and is binding on Department employees only until superseded or modified by a change in statute, regulation, court decision, or advisory opinion.
NOTE 3: Advisory Opinions approved by the Director are binding on Department employees; they are not binding on the public. They are general statements of position that provide guidance to the public and Department employees; they are not agency regulations and do not prescribe rules. Advisory opinions remain in effect unless superseded or modified by a change in statute, regulation, court decision, or advisory opinion. An Information Letter is used to announce general information. It has no precedential value, and is not binding on the public, the Department, or its employees.
CAUTION: Our website contains advisory opinions issued by the Department from 1987 to present. Many of these opinions have been modified, superseded, or are obsolete. The Department issues an Information Letter (a citator) quarterly that identifies the effect new advisory opinions have on those previously published to the best of our knowledge. This Citator; however, does not include the effect new laws, regulations, or court decisions have on previously issued advisory opinions.
