<description><![CDATA[<p><font size="3">There are two big developments in the works regarding the collection and payment of sales tax by title companies.</font></p>
<p><font size="3">&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></p>
<p><font size="3">Sales tax audits of title agents are being conducted in both Zone 1 and Zone 2. &nbsp;Our aim is to provide Members with good information so they can operate in full compliance and be prepared for an audit when one is scheduled.</font></p>
<p><font size="3">&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></p>
<p><font size="3">We are working to establish strong communication channels with the Department of Tax &amp; Finance though our professional staff. This will give us a platform to help the&nbsp;Department&nbsp;understand our business and facilitate resolution of&nbsp;Member's concerns.</font></p>
<p><font size="3">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></p>
<p><font size="3">The Education Committee is preparing a credit-bearing Continuing Education course on Sales tax.</font></p>
<p><font size="3"><br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="3">The Association is asking Members to submit your questions about sales tax. These inquiries will be collated and presented to the NYS Department of Tax &amp; Finance. The Education Committee will also use these questions to inform a Continuing Education class on sales tax, currently being finalized.</font></p>
<p><font size="3">&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></p>
<p><font size="3">Use the comments section link, located below this article, to pose your question.</font></p>
<p><font size="3">&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></p>
<p><font size="3">This will help us determine the areas of greatest concern to Members.</font></p>

<h4 style="text-align: center;"><font size="4"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Event</span><span style="text-decoration: underline;">&nbsp;Sponsorship</span></font></h4>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">Sponsorship Opportunities:</font></span></span></span></p>
<ul>
    <li style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">Education Materials - each attendee will receive a binder with the sponsor's logo in the front sleeve of the binder and any marketing material they would like inserted. (either in the back sleeve pocket or three hole punched).</font></span></span></span></li>
    <li style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">Room Sponsor - may bring marketing material and promotional items to hand out or display on chairs.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Note:</em>&nbsp;There may be venues that have folding chairs when not occupied.</font></span></span></span></li>
    <li style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">Coffee/Breakfast/Snacks - may bring marketing material and promotional items to display on the buffet table.</font></span></span></span></li>
</ul>
<p><span><span><span><font size="3">Each sponsor is responsible for&nbsp;transporting their own&nbsp;marketing materials&nbsp;to the site.</font></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><font size="3"><em>All</em>&nbsp;sponsors may bring signage. &nbsp;</font></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><font size="3">&nbsp;</font></span></span></span></p>
<h4 style="text-align: center;"><strong style=""><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><font size="4">Guidelines</font></span></strong></h4>
<p style="text-align: center;"><font size="3">&nbsp;</font></p>
<ul>
    <li style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">Sponsors who plan to distribute materials should arrive no later than 1/2 hour before the event begins if they plan to distribute materials.</font></span></span></span></li>
    <li style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">Production ready art files (logo) once you have received confirmation of your sponsorship should be sent to the NYSLTA for announcement recognition as soon as possible, and no later that 1 week prior to the event.</font></span></span></span></li>
    <li style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">Sponsors will be secured on a "first come, first serve" basis once Regina has sent out the official email outlining the sponsorship opportunities for a specific event. Only an email response&nbsp;<em>to that specific email&nbsp;</em>will be accepted.</font></span></span></span></li>
    <li style="text-align: left;"><span><span><span><font size="3">If your company was a sponsor on the&nbsp;immediate preceding NYSLTA hosted event, preference may be given to other member companies for the upcoming program. (This does not apply to other functions of the LTA such as the annual convention).</font></span></span></span></li>
</ul>
