Sales Tax Reports

Allocation historical summaries show the total dollars returned to a local sales taxing city, county, special purpose district, or transit authority by the Comptroller’s Office for their local sales tax collection. The payments are listed by month and totaled by year. Allocation amounts are dependent upon the timing and accuracy of taxpayers’ returns, but generally represent taxes collected on sales made two months or more prior to the allocation payment.
