I'll start with the most recent from this 2024 tax year. I filed my taxes early & was to receive a state refund for business income. My refund never materialized & after 3 months I received a letter saying they needed substantiating documents - the catch is that the 30 day deadline for them to receive those docs was in a couple of days because somehow it took them almost a month to get that letter to me! So I call to get more information & to inform them of this issue with the tight deadline. I spoke with Sharice - who, whil... read more

The FTB makes the DMV look like a five star experience. There are no curses foul enough to describe how awful of an experience it is to have to deal with the CA FTB as a business.

This seems very suspicious and fraudulent way of operating. If at all possible get your entity registered in a diffe... read more

Adam, you have no custom service skills. Your employment should terminated from The Franchise Tax Board. Told this representative that I had set up an auto draft setup and they didn’t pull any payment for my previous tax year. I needed to know what to do for this next tax year so it wouldn’t happen again. I know it was setup correctly as the auto draft payment was set up for the IRS at the same time. He said as quickly as he could web payment and is that it in the same breath. I told him that’s not what I’m asking about and ... read more
