Enter taxable sales from return. The following examples are positive (+) adjustments: A1. Enter the Taxable Transactions or Total Purchases from line 12 on CDTFA-401-A, or line 12 on CDTFA-401-GS, or line 1 on CDTFA-401-E in box A1. • Items you purchased without paying district tax. If you paid state and local sales tax on a purchase, but not district tax, and if you made a taxable use of the item in a tax district, add the price of the item for that district. • Amounts collected for a discontinued district. If you collected taxes for a district that has been discontinued and have not paid those taxes to the CDTFA, add the amounts on which you collected those taxes. Do not enter those amounts on line A5. If a discontinued district is not listed, call 1-800-400-7115 (CRS:711) for assistance. Step 2. Enter all transactions subject to only the state rate of 7.25% (with no additional collection of district tax) on A2/A3. A2/A3. Enter purchases of items purchased for use in a location where no district tax is in effect. Also, enter sales of items (excluding vehicles, vessels, or aircraft) delivered and used (1) at a location where no district tax is in effect or (2) in a district where you are not “engaged in business” and did not collect the district tax. (See publication 105, District Taxes and Delivered Sales, available on the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) website at www.cdtfa.ca.gov, for a definition of “engaged in business.”) The following examples are negative (-) adjustments: • Transactions included in line A5 that represent the sale or use of merchandise before the effective date of a district. • If your line A4 is $0.00 and you have no adjustments for prior periods, you are finished with your Schedule A2. Enter $0.00 on line 16 of CDTFA-401-A or CDTFA-401-GS, or line 5 of CDTFA-401-E. You may want to call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-400-7115 (CRS:711) to see if you qualify for filing the EZ return (CDTFA-401-EZ). Customer service representatives are available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time), except state holidays. Fixed-price contracts. Deduct the sales price or lease payments (excluding amounts collected as tax) for qualifying fixed-price contracts. A fixed-price contract is one entered into before the effective date of the district tax, which: (1) fixes the amount of the sales or lease price; (2) specifically states the amount or rate of tax based on the rate in effect when the contract was executed; and (3) does not give either party the right to terminate the contract upon notice. (See Regulation 1661 for information on leases of mobile transportation equipment.) • Merchandise used outside the district. If you paid district tax on a purchase and first used the item in a different district, you may need to enter adjustments on A6/A7. Call 1-800-400-7115 (CRS:711) for assistance. Step 4.

California usually releases forms for the current tax year between January and April. We last updated California CDTFA-401-EZ2 from the Franchise Tax Board in May 2021.
CDTFA-401-EZ2 is a California Sales Tax form. Like the Federal Form 1040, states each provide a core tax return form on which most high-level income and tax calculations are performed. While some taxpayers with simple returns can complete their entire tax return on this single form, in most cases various other additional schedules and forms must be completed, depending on the taxpayer's individual situation, to create a complete income tax return package.
About the Sales Tax
Sales taxes are applied to the transfer of goods (and sometimes services) to the end consumer in most of the fifty states, and are collected by the vendor from their customers and remitted to the state taxation department on a regular basis. Therefore, most sales tax related tax forms are applicable to businesses, and not private individuals.
