Nevada Use Tax due on a CC purchased in California but delivery take

Yahoo Message Number: 73023
When taking advantage of the California Sales Tax/Use Tax exemption BOE-448 form "Statement of Delivery Outside California",for an RV purchased in California (by a California resident)but delivery is taken in Nevada, is the taxable event merely transfered to Nevada? Does one expect to receive a tax bill at some point on the other end?

It has been some years since we did ours, but we did not receive a tax statement from NV or CA. As long as you comply with the state of CA requirements, you will owe no tax. All I can say is keep excellent records as to where the coach has been and total expenses while out of CA. We got called for an audit but our records were in order so nothing owed. This was on the second coach we did the out of state delivery thing on. No problem, just don't let the tax board scare you. It is not illegal to avoid tax.

I don't believe Nevada is informed of the transaction. When we took delivery in Nevada the Notary signed the paperwork for California purposes.
We never had an issue.

We had no problem when we did this a few years ago. Documentation is important. We made a purchase of something almost every day and kept receipts-- fuel, RV parking, food, and anything else. I did a spreadsheet on Excel to show everything. Because of the spread sheet and organization, they just glanced at it and all was well. No hassle.

Still looking for another coach

The CA tax avoidance occurs because the dealer does not need to collect Sales tax on transactions concluded outside of CA.
If one immediately registers the rig in California, the buyer needs to follow the BOE published rules to avoid paying Use Tax in CA. The dealer usually does the registration for the buyer.
DMV will not collect the Sales Tax at registration if furnished with notarized proof that the vehicle was delivered out of state and a statement that it was purchased for use out of state.
Since the vehicle is registered in CA no other state will have a claim for tax on the transaction or registration.

I have taken delivery of several California coaches in Nevada. A notary in Nevada will witness the ownership transfer (to satisfy California law) but since you are not registering in Nevada, no tax obligation exists there. That will come from the state where you do register the unit.

We ended up not doing this. Not because One of Us did not want to, but the 'Other One' felt uncomfortable about doing so. We also wanted the RV immediately availble for repairs, maitenance, upgrades in our home town.
But, if you follow the rules an document, document, document this should work well for you too. I do suggest that you not try to 'trick' the system, becasue the needs to raise funds has made this an area of closer screening.

Best of luck on your new coach,

I suspected that my story was unusual. The purchase (in late 2008) of my CC was structured for an out-of-state delivery. Records were kept. All requirements were met. Eventually California audited the transaction and proof of exemption was requested. The package was sent in, several months later I was notified that my exemption was approved. That letter also stated that the BOE would be notifying the Nevada counterpart about the transaction.
FYI. Yesterday I received a Delinquency Notice for Use Tax from the Nevada Department of Taxation. I'm left pondering what was the point of the exemption program if this is the result?

Has anybody else had this happen?
