application but, never completed it; this will also, allow us to verify if in-
deed an application was initiated.
We are hoping that this expanded version will help increase our numbers
of applications filed online. Since going live with our system in January
of 2010, our number of online applications has increased, however, we
feel that the new version will increase the numbers significantly.
Another process we plan to offer starting January 1st, is the ability to file
tangible returns online. Bruce Harris and Associates Inc. is developing
this application for us. This process will require the tangible personal
property business to contact our office through the system to request an
access code. In the event it is a new business, we will issue a code for
them. If it is an existing business, we will confirm it is such and the re-
questing person has the authorization to receive the company‘s access
code.
Once the company receives their individualized access code they can
proceed to file their return online. If it is an existing company, their
most recent list of assets will populate on the screen. They can then edit,
add or delete any appropriate information. If it is a large company with
a lot of assets they can download an Excel template which is provided,
and they may upload their asset information. After the process is com-
plete and the customer submits the return, the application will produce a
return the customer can print or save for their records, and a PDF is cre-
ated for our office. When we are notified of a submitted return, our per-
sonnel will be able to convert the file to be uploaded into our CAMA sys-
tem.
We are very excited about what we are able to offer the public online and
look forward to continue to offer even more services. If you have any
questions regarding either of the two processes, please feel free to con-
tact me.
