Tax amnesty underway

A tax amnesty is underway in Nevada, the second such amnesty of the Gibbons administration.

People or businesses that owe money to the state will have until Sept. 30 to repay them without being hit with penalties. Information is available at http://tax.state.nv.us/amnesty.htm.

In 2008, a tax amnesty ran for the same 92-day period and produced $41 million. The state’s financial state has declined since then.
