FALI's Bills to Repeal the Tax on Investigative Services Have Been Filed in the Florida House & Senate!
Member assistance is IMPERATIVE to get it across the finish line!
Greetings FALI Members,
The 2022 Florida Legislative Session begins on Tuesday,
January 11th. We are ecstatic to report that after working with our
lobbyist on this issue for five years, we finally have bills filed on
our behalf: HB 0763 (Casello) and SB 1146 (Rodriguez) As
a reminder we have worked hard to show the Department of Revenue that
they were overestimating the PI profession's contribution to tax revenue
for many reasons including the fact that they grouped us with security
and alarm companies, who are taxable. With
the assistance of the Division of Licensing we were able to get our A
licensees separated out from other licenses so they could pull the
legitimate numbers regarding our contribution. We
surveyed our membership several times to provide additional, realistic,
data. Now we need your help to get us across the finish line and
finally have this tax repealed. There
are over 2,600 A licensees in Florida. It is important that those who
are FALI members participate in sending letters to members of the
Legislature to show their support of this legislation. You are their
constituents, and they need to know why this is important to your
livelihood. We are making it easy for you. 1. Click HERE to access the letter template.
2. Copy the letter onto your letterhead.
3. Update any of the information that pertains to you and your agency.
4. If you have a story to share that would help the cause, feel free to add it in the space provided.
5. Return to admin@fali.org as a WORD document so we can then customize it with the contact information for the appropriate legislator. Please return your letter as soon as possible, preferably no later than Monday, January 10th. Thank you for your assistance. Please let us know if you have any questions. |
