Indiana's is going up 1% as of tomorrow. If I have March shows that doesn't get turned in until April will they pay the upped tax or not?
Does anyone have any idea?
 
tax rateYou would charge the tax rate as of March - I would think. :)
 
I was wondering the same thing. I would think the March show would stay at the 6% rate.

I talked to my director (she has been in the biz 20 + years). She said the last time this happened they went by the show date.
 
I would assume it would go by show date, too.
