If the MFA were enacted, Internet and catalog vendors would likely be required to collect use tax in states where such remote sellers have no physical presence. Under the version of MFA passed by the Senate and now being considered by the House of Representatives, if a state adopts minimum simplification standards, as specified in the MFA or under the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement (neither of which in our opinion provide significant reduction of the administrative burdens on remote sellers), the state would be permitted to impose sales and use tax obligations on Internet and other direct marketers if the seller has as little as $1 million of sales nationwide. This federal legislation would supersede the physical presence standard of "substantial nexus" for sales and use taxes applicable under Quill Corp. v. North Dakota, 504 U.S. 298 (1992). Despite its passage in the Senate on May 6, 2013 the MFA is not yet law, and may well be rejected, modified, or replaced by a competing bill in the House. Indeed, as recently as last Thursday, June 6, Bob Goodlatte, the Chair of the House Judiciary Committee, which is responsible for holding hearings on the MFA, announced that the House is working on alternatives to the MFA. Moreover, there is at least a 6 month period from adoption of the MFA until a company is required to collect and remit sales taxes. Click on the title to read more...
