Information About Obtaining Connecticut Informational Publications In Booklet Form

This publication has been superseded by AN 99(1)

PURPOSE: To provide new information about obtaining copies of informational publications in booklet form.

BACKGROUND: DRS publishes a large number of tax information publications in the form of special notices, announcements, policy statements and informational publications. The majority of these publications are between one and four pages in length. DRS does not charge for these publications nor for the cost of mailing them. In the past year, DRS issued three informational publications in booklet form: IP 95(1.1), A Guide to Connecticut Sales and Use Taxes for Building Contractors; IP 95(2), A Guide to Connecticut Corporation Business Tax Credits; and IP 95(14), Sales and Use Taxes Guide for Manufacturers, Fabricators and Processors. Because of the costs involved in reproducing and mailing these booklets, DRS will limit distribution of these publications to one copy per request and will mail them only on a postage-paid basis.

NEW POLICY: To save the costs of mailing informational publications in booklet form, DRS has adopted the following new policy effective as of the date of issuance of this Announcement. Distribution of each booklet will be limited to one copy per person who visits one of our offices or per request received by phone or mail.

PICKING UP BOOKLETS AT A DRS OFFICE: DRS will not charge for a copy of informational publications in booklet form if they are picked up at its main office in Hartford or in its field office locations.

ORDERING BOOKLETS BY MAIL OR TELEPHONE: DRS will require anyone who wishes to have copies of informational publications in booklet form mailed to him or her to provide a self-addressed envelope at least 9" by 12" in size, with the amount of postage affixed as explained below. (The postage stated for mailing each publication is the cost of first class delivery by the United States Postal Service of one copy of the requested booklet to an addressee anywhere in the United States.)  

EFFECT OF THIS DOCUMENT: An Announcement is a document that alerts taxpayers to important information. Such information may involve new administrative policies or procedures of the Department.
