The Commissioner of Taxation and Finance hereby sets the interest rates for the months of October, November, and December 2022 pursuant to Tax Law sections 697(j) and 1096(e), as follows:

For purposes of section 697(j) the overpayment rate of interest is set at 5 percent per annum, and the underpayment rate of interest is set at 8.5 percent per annum. For purposes of section 1096(e), the overpayment rate of interest is set at 5 percent per annum, and the underpayment rate of interest is set at 10 percent per annum. (The underpayment rates set pursuant to sections 697(j) and 1096(e) may not be less than 7.5 percent per annum.) Pursuant to Tax Law section 1145(a)(1), the underpayment rate for State and local sales and use taxes administered by the Commissioner of Taxation and Finance is 14.5 percent per annum. The underpayment rate for the special assessments on hazardous waste imposed by section 27-0923 of the Environmental Conservation Law is 15 percent.

For the interest rates applicable to overpayments (refunds) and underpayments (late payments and assessments) of the following taxes administered by the Commissioner of Taxation and Finance for the period October 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022, see the table below:

10/1/22 - 12/31/22 Interest Rate Per Annum Compounded Daily

* The Tax Law requires the interest rate on sales tax assessments or late payments to be set at 14.5% for this quarter. However, if the Commissioner determines that the failure to pay or the delay in payment is due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect, the Commissioner may impose interest at the corporation tax late payment and assessment rate. That rate is 10% for this quarter.

** There are a number of state and local governmental bodies that have interest rates tied to the overpayment and underpayment rates contained in either section 697(j) (Income Tax) or Tax Law section 1096(e) (Corporation Tax). For purposes of section 697(j) and Tax Law section 1096(e), the overpayment rate for this period is 5%. For purposes of Tax Law section 697(j), the underpayment rate for this period is 8.5%. For purposes of Tax Law section 1096(e), the underpayment rate for this period is 10%.

*** Under Tax Law section 527(f), the interest rates relating to the Fuel Use tax are set pursuant to the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA). For more information regarding IFTA interest rates, see www.iftach.org.
