STATE OF CALIFORNIA
REQUEST FOR RELIEF FROM PENALTY, COLLECTION COST
RECOVERY FEE, AND/OR INTEREST
TAXPAYER OR FEEPAYER NAME
BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
ACCOUNT NUMBER
To obtain relief from penalty, interest, or the collection cost recovery fee, you must file a written request with the Board of Equalization
(BOE), signed under penalty of perjury. Please attach documentation to support your request if it is available. A BOE representative
may contact you if additional information is required. If you make any payments towards the amount(s) for which you are requesting
the relief, you must file a claim for refund within six months from the date of each payment or you will lose the opportunity to obtain a
refund of amount(s) paid. Publication 117, Filing a Claim for Refund, contains information regarding refunds, including BOE-101, Claim
for Refund. This publication, and many others, is available on our website at www.boe.ca.gov.
I request relief from:
PENALTY
The BOE may grant relief from penalty charges if it is determined that you failed to timely file or pay, or failed to pay using the
correct payment method, due to reasonable cause and circumstances beyond your control. Your request may not be processed
until the tax/fee has been paid in full. If you are relieved of the penalty charges, you must still pay the interest due on late return
payments and prepayments.
COLLECTION COST RECOVERY FEE
A collection cost recovery fee (CRF) is applied to most past due liabilities that remain unpaid for more than 90 days. The
BOE may grant relief from the CRF if it is determined that failure to pay a past due liability was due to reasonable cause and
circumstances beyond your control. Your request cannot be processed until the liability (tax/fee, interest, and penalty) for
which the CRF was assessed has been paid in full.
INTEREST
The BOE may grant relief of interest only for the reasons shown below. If we approve your request, all or part of the interest may
be relieved.

error or delay is attributable to your actions or your failure to act; or
An error by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in calculating the amount of use tax due on your DMV
•
registered vehicle or vessel.
PENALTY AND INTEREST—DISASTER VICTIMS

file or pay, or failed to pay using the correct payment method, due to reasonable cause and circumstances beyond your control.
