What is certain? The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance (DTF) will collect the state's taxes. Taxes administered by the department, totaling over $58 billion, include alcohol, cigarette and tobacco, corporate, estate, gasoline, income, property, sales, and withholding, among others. DTF drafts tax legislation and educates business and individual taxpayers; it also audits and prosecutes those who don't follow the rules. In addition to state taxes, the agency collects local sales tax, a surcharge for riding in cabs in New York City, personal income tax in the City, and delinquent child support payments. To save money, the state's Office of Real Property Services was merged into DTF in mid-2010.

New York State Department of Taxation and Finance
The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance (NYSDTF) is a core agency of the US state of New York. It is headquartered in Building 8/8A at the W. Averell Harriman State Office Building Campus in Albany.
The agency is responsible for handling all tax forms and publications. The NYSDTF is also in charge of dispersing tax revenue to other agencies and counties within New York State.
The NYSDTF has strict organizational rules set up by the state's Public Officer Law. In addition to obeying the Public Officer Law, every current employee of the tax department must have their taxes filed and paid otherwise employment will be terminated. Public Officer laws are a set of guidelines which were created for all public employees (state employees) to follow.
The tax department was formally created on January 1, 1927 but the first signs of the department reared their head in 1859. The original intent was to find a way (mathematical formula) to distribute tax revenue to individual counties in New York State.
