Our current system provides a surplus lines broker with 50 different and conflicting laws. It is truly impossible for just 7 states to agree on the color of grass, let alone the allocation of an insurance policy’s tax. Try finding one insurance department employee that can “correctly” tell the out of state broker how to file the allocated tax… 98.3% have it wrong 100% of the time. Next Step – One “Multi-State Surplus Lines Stamping Office” with one “Multi-State Tax Allocation Form.” (…maybe by the year 2205)... 24149@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Tue, 04 Dec 2007 00:00:00 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_SN_929.html 3/20/2007: Referred to Senate committee.
