DES MOINES, IOWA (November 16, 2021) — GovConnectIowa is now available for Iowa business-owners and business tax-filers. The Iowa Department of Revenue and other state agencies are modernizing technology and processes to better serve Iowa tax-payers, resulting in this new and secure online portal.

In this initial rollout, the Iowa Department of Revenue, the Iowa Lottery Authority, Iowa Department of Inspections and Appeals, and the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division partnered to provide enhanced user-friendly tools that are accessible from anywhere, at any time.

Business owners now have access to streamlined options to:

* Register or renew certain business licenses and permits;

* Pay certain license and permit fees;

* File sales, use, withholding, and fuel tax-returns and -reports;

* Submit deposits or payments for sales, use, withholding, and fuel taxes; and

* Communicate with state agencies.

The Department is mailing letters to existing tax permit holders with instructions on how to access their tax accounts in GovConnectIowa. Before receiving the letter, business-owners with existing tax-permits can begin using GovConnectIowa's Quick File and Quick Pay features today!

Visit govconnect.iowa.gov to access these features.

For more information about GovConnectIowa, including important dates, how-to information, and other educational resources, visit tax.iowa.gov/modernization.

Later rollouts in this multi-year project will simplify processes for corporate income tax-payers, individual income tax-payers, local government tax-equalization and -distributions, and more.
