The Pa Department of Revenue website is available for organizations licensed to conduct small games of chance. If your organization makes over $20,000 a year from gaming, you have until January 31, 2015 to file your 2014 activity into the State’s website.
Many organizations will now be finding themselves spending weeks compiling inconsistent gaming records, then taking those records and spending countless hours manually entering their gaming records into the Department of Revenue’s website
Why is this process so
difficult?
Because all of the following must be accounted for:
1. All
Games that were in play and out of play in 2014, Gross Revenue/Total
Expenses/Total Prizes and Proceeds amounts need to be grouped/tallied and reported.
2. Processes
must be implemented to lower the risk of employee theft
3. Each
game must be tracked using up to 14 different Schedules provided by the PA
Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement.
4. For
all 2014 gaming activity each of the 8 Game types need to be grouped by
business week, Expenses/Proceeds etc. Tallied and entered into the States
website.
5. All
of your Gaming 60% transactions (donations) and a summary of your
40% transactions need to be entered into the States website.
