Office of Tax Research Collections and Distributions

This page provides data on tax returns and tax distributions administered by the Department of Revenue. Please note the following qualifications:

Timing – Sales tax dollars are due to the Department the month after the associated taxable activity occurs. Distributions are then made from this revenue the following month. The timetable for collections and distributions varies for other taxes.
Confidentiality – According to section 213.053, Florida Statutes, every return the Department receives is confidential. However, this statute authorizes the Department to publish aggregate statistics, as long as they do not reveal the information of a single taxpayer. To that end, all the data in the following forms has been aggregated to meet confidentiality standards.
Revisions – Tax returns are subject to revision by either the taxpayer or the Department at any time. Therefore, the data presented here is also subject to revision. Data older than three months rarely changes, and most large-dollar corrections take place in the first month following receipt. For this reason, the Department either avoids publishing data during this first month or marks it as preliminary.
