Can I get a tax invoice instead of a summary of subscription payment (in Canada)

davidlambert

When I log in to my account, I see only the total price of subscription renewal. As a business, I need to know what the product cost and associated taxes are, separately.

@Davidlambert - some states do not charge sales tax on software - how much were you charged?

I live in Canada (British Columbia) and sales taxes are charged on software here.

Hi @davidlambert,

You purchased a US product from a US company.  Quicken does not charge sales taxes to Canadian citizens, or to goods sold to Canadian companies, because it does not have nexus in Canada.  In addition, Quicken, is a California company, there are no state sales taxes on software sold in California.

So the answer is you paid no sales taxes on your Quicken software.

Frankx, I have to disagree with you. I also subscribe to Adobe Acrobat Pro DC (San Jose, CA) and I do pay sales taxes (Harmonized sales tax, 13%) for that subscription monthly.

You didn't ask about Adobe, you asked about Quicken. 

Adobe is a multinational company/enterprise with offices and operations in many countries.  They likely have nexus in Canada.  As I clearly explained above, my view, from all the data that I have, Quicken is a California company - not a multinational.

Maybe you should talk to your Canadian accountant. However, if you want to pay taxes - feel free to make that donation.
