Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Are you asking about CA use tax? Here is some more information from the Franchise Tax Board:

 

If you bought tax-free things online, in another state, or in a foreign country, you may owe use tax.

 

Use tax applies to out-of-state purchases made by:

  • Phone
  • Internet
  • Mail
  • In-person

And both of the following apply:

  • The seller does not collect California sales or use tax.
  • You use, give away, store, or consume the item in this state.
