Virginia Individual Income Tax returns
must be filed annually on or before May 1; however, there is no penalty for refund returns
filed after the due date. Responsibilities of the Commissioner of the Revenue's
Office include reviewing and processing tax returns for Poquoson residents. Each
return is reviewed for completeness and accuracy. Taxpayers are notified of any
errors or omissions and allowed to correct these errors before the returns are forwarded
to the Virginia Department of Taxation, which may prevent having to file an amended return
later. Returns indicating an Accelerated Refund are keyed on-line with the
Department's computer system. Taxpayers whose returns are accepted by the system as
an accelerated refund usually receive their refund within 1 to 2 weeks, rather than the 3
to 4 weeks it takes for normal processing. Prior year and amended returns often
require two or more months to process. Taxpayers who have received correspondence from the Department of Taxation concerning their return may contact the Commissioner of the Revenue at (757) 868-3020 for assistance, or may call the Department of Taxation at the number indicated on their correspondence, or at (804) 367-8031. Taxpayers who make Estimated Tax payments are
required to file Form 760ES Voucher 1 annually on or before May 1 with the Commissioner of
the Revenue's office. All subsequent payments for that tax year are sent to the City
Treasurer and should be filed in accordance with the due date on the respective voucher.
