For Immediate Release: April 10, 2008


   Department of Taxation Eliminates $2.50 Transaction Fee to E-File and E-Pay


In an effort to vigorously promote electronic filing, the State Department of Taxation has
eliminated the $2.50 fee previously required when filing and making a payment
electronically through the State's website. Effective Monday, April 14,2008, 11:00 a.m.
(Hawaii Standard Time) taxpayers wishing to e-file and e-pay (paying by electronic
check) their tax returns, or other tax payments, using the State's website may do so at
NO COST for any type of transaction that is available. The Tax Department felt that the
fee discouraged taxpayers from e-filing, and is now strongly encouraging all taxpayers
to e-file and e-pay.


It's easy ­ it's quick ­ and it's accurate! And, better yet, it's free!


The following tax forms may be e-filed at no cost using the State's website:

    ·   Form G-45, GE/Use Tax Return & Form G-49, GE Annual Return and Reconciliation
    ·   Form N-13, Resident Individual Income Tax Return (Short Form)
    ·   Form HW-14, WH Period Return
    ·   Form A-6, Tax Clearance
    ·   Form G-39, GE Extension
    ·   Form TA-1, TA Period Return
    ·   Form TA-2, TA Annual Return and Reconciliation

                                                (more)
