Online Business Tax Renewals (eFiling)
Our online eFiling system speeds and simplifies the filing of your renewal. Click the link found below, enter a few details and the system automatically calculates your Business Tax Liability, if any. You may then either pay online or print the renewal form and mail it to our office along with your payment. If you owe nothing, complete and submit the form online and you are done! Make sure to print out a copy of the Renewal Confirmation Screen for your records. Even if you owe no tax, you must submit a completed renewal electronically or by mail no later than February 28, 2013.
Before you begin:
eFiling is available for use 24 hours a day with the exception of
scheduled system maintenance periods (Nightly 3:00 AM - 3:15 AM PST).
To use the system, you will need
the following information to log into the system:

Special Note for Businesses requiring Supplemental
Forms:
In 2009, most of the supplemental forms were revised. The
revisions were reflected only on paper copies of the forms. The forms
accompanying eFiling have not been updated to the 2009 versions. The
differences are one of presentation leaving the practice of calculating
taxes intact. If you wish to utilize eFiling using paper forms as
templates, please transcribe the information from your 2009 versions onto
the eFiling forms as appropriate. If you require assistance with such,
please contact us at (213) 473-5901
