APPROVAL PROCESS PERSONAL INCOME TAX FORMS
Dear PIT Software Developer:
The information contained on this page is for those re-creating Delaware's Personal Income Tax returns.
Please Note: 200 ES and 2D barcode forms follow a different approval process. For information on these forms or if you have specific tax questions, call or e-mail the appropriate contact listed on Contacts for Software Developers.
To include a Delaware Personal Income Tax return in your software package, each PIT form must receive "Design Approval" by the Delaware Division of Revenue.
What is Design Approval?The layout of your forms matches our forms.
Fields and checkboxes match those on the DE return.
Fields and checkboxes do not merge together, or sit on or hang from any adjacent lines.
Correct text, spelling, etc.
To receive "Design Approval"
• Step 1 - Find the most recent copies of our PIT forms for duplication on the Current Year Personal Income Tax Forms section of our website.
PIT Resident and Non-Resident Income Tax Returns should be posted to our website and ready for duplication by the middle of August.
Miscellaneous PIT Forms will be posted to our website and ready for duplication in October.
• Step 2 - Check the Revised Date on the lower, right-hand corner of each form to see if the form has been revised for this year. If your company has already received Design Approval on a form, the form will remain "approved" until Delaware makes changes to the form.
You do not need to obtain additional "design approvals" for forms that you've already had approved, if they have not changed from the previous year.
• Step 3 - If the form has been Revised, re-create the form and submit it for approval. For Personal Income Tax forms, send forms:
via e-mail in PDF format: angela.moffett@state.de.us
or by mail:
Attn: Angela Moffett
Delaware Division of Revenue
820 N. French Street
Wilmington, DE 19801
Please Note: Approval from a DRAFT form is only an initial approval. The form is still subject to change. We will notify you if your "Initial Approval" changes and ask that you re-submit the form for approval. When a DRAFT becomes FINAL, we will notify you that your form is now "Approved".
For E-mail Updates
If you'd like to receive e-mail updates regarding PIT forms development, contact Angela Moffett at angela.moffett@state.de.us. Add "PIT Forms" in the subject line, and please include your name, contact information and company name in the body of your e-mail.
As always, we look forward to working with you this year!
