Texas collected tax on internet access prior to the enactment of ITFA under the "Taxables Services" provision of its Tax Code, see older § 151.0101(a). Texas has refined its tax code to define "Internet access service", include it under "Taxable Services" and exempted the first $25.00 on a monthly basis, See current Texas Tax Code § 151.325 & 151.0101(a) --------------------------- and also listed in detail... http://info.sos.state.tx.us/pls/pub/readtac$ext.TacPage?sl=T&app=9&p_dir=N&p_rloc=166385&p_tloc=14689&p_ploc=1&pg=2&p_tac=&ti=34&pt=&ch=3&rl=365 ------------------------- Don't be afraid of picking up the phone and calling the State's Tax Dept. and speaking with their Legal Staff, for guidance, they are obligated to assist you with the info, and they cannot hold your questions against you.
