WASHINGTON STATE ECONOMIC AND REVENUE FORECAST COUNCIL
Summary
• The U.S. reached a peak in economic activity in February and is now in recession
• The baseline forecast has lower personal income and employment for both U.S., WA compared to February
• Forecast risks primarily relate to COVID-19 and the economic impacts of addressing the pandemic
• The Near General Fund-State forecast is decreased by $4.5 billion for the 2019-21 biennium and $4.3 billion for 2021-23 biennium
Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell:
“Until the public is confident that the disease is contained, a full recovery is unlikely”

Forecast risks
Upside• As states start to re-open, COVID infections
remain low leading to greater consumer confidence and spending, increased employment
• Congress passes additional fiscal stimulus
Downside• As states start to re-open, a second spike in
COVID infections leads to renewal of business closures
• Consumers remain concerned about COVID, response to business re-openings is muted

Extensions in Response to COVID-19
Authority
o RCW 82.32.080 authorizes the Department of Revenue to grant extensions of the due date of taxes due to the Department when the governor has proclaimed a state of emergency.
o The governor declared a state of emergency due to COVID-19 on February 29, 2020.
![Page 28: Local Government Partnership Meeting€¦ · Tribal Compacts Team ... Allowing the local sales and use tax for affordable housing to be imposed by a councilmanic authority: HB 2497](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050602/5fa9daa372a08d542e1fcb97/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Extensions – Department’s Response
The Department of Revenue extended due dates for taxes due, including:
• Excise Tax
• Business and Occupation Tax
• State and Local Retail Sales Tax
• Lodging Taxes
• Enhanced 911 (E911) Taxes
• State Shared Taxes
• Brokered Natural Gas Use Tax
• Leasehold Tax
• Forest Tax
![Page 29: Local Government Partnership Meeting€¦ · Tribal Compacts Team ... Allowing the local sales and use tax for affordable housing to be imposed by a councilmanic authority: HB 2497](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050602/5fa9daa372a08d542e1fcb97/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Extensions – Department’s Response
Extensions were granted to all Annual 2019 and Quarter 1, 2020 filers:
o Annual 2019 – Extended to June 15, 2020
o Quarter 1, 2020 – Extended to June 30, 2020
Monthly filers have been granted extensions upon request. Extension requests are evaluated based on several factors, including the impact of the state of emergency on the individual business requesting the extension.
![Page 30: Local Government Partnership Meeting€¦ · Tribal Compacts Team ... Allowing the local sales and use tax for affordable housing to be imposed by a councilmanic authority: HB 2497](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050602/5fa9daa372a08d542e1fcb97/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Extensions – Impact to Jurisdictions
Typically, local sales tax funds are distributed for taxes collected by businesses two months prior to the distribution month.
o Example: Local taxes distributed in June 2020 are mostly from taxes reported on the April 2020 excise tax return.
The extensions granted could result in delayed funding of some local tax revenue. You could see a portion of distribution each month coming from prior periods.
Local sales taxes are distributed based on when the Department receives the payment.
![Page 31: Local Government Partnership Meeting€¦ · Tribal Compacts Team ... Allowing the local sales and use tax for affordable housing to be imposed by a councilmanic authority: HB 2497](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050602/5fa9daa372a08d542e1fcb97/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Payment Plans
• Some businesses have requested and been approved for a payment plan for periods impacted by COVID-19.
• In these cases, one filing period for the business will appear on distribution detail reports for multiple periods as each partial payment is received.
• You will receive distribution of local taxes when a payment is received.
