Fiscal Year End Resolution-Pay less Sales tax in fiscal year 2018-2019!

This is a friendly reminder that Lawrence University is tax exempt from sales tax on goods and services purchased in Wisconsin.  Last week Financial Services obtained over $350 in refunds for sales tax that should not have been paid.  Please try to keep our exemption in mind when making purchases on behalf of Lawrence University during our new fiscal year 2018-2019.   Vendors should not need anything more than the Wisconsin tax exempt form that can be found on the Financial Services website.  The link is below.

  • Florida
  • Illinois (does not apply to lodging)
  • Massachusetts (does not apply to meals and/or lodging)
  • Minnesota (does not apply to meals and/or lodging)

Please contact Jill Senso, X6544 to obtain the sales tax form that vendors in these states will need.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
