Safe Harbor is a method of computing your sales tax based upon your income level. You need to look up the chart number and have the amount of State and Local Sales tax for your area. The Chart Numbers are on the IRS website. Just go to irs.gov and search Sales Tax and it will give you the chart based on what state you live in. Sales Tax is claimable instead of your State Income Tax withholdings amount but you can't claim both of them. It's one or the other.
You will probably have to pay Iowa's if it's from a dealer.
All sales of tangible personal property in Iowa are subject to sales tax unless exempted by state law. Sales of services are exempt from Iowa sales tax unless taxed (enumerated) by state law. Labor is not tangible personal property So what that means, is unless the labor is specifically enumerated as a taxable type of service, than labor is NOT taxable. see http://www.state.ia.us/tax/educate/78539.html#ExemptSales for a listing on labor that requires collection of state sales tax.
