A New York Request for Certificate of Default is a document used to request a Certificate of Default from the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance. This document is used when a taxpayer needs to prove that they are in default of their tax obligations in New York. There are two types of New York Request for Certificate of Default: (1) Request for Certificate of Default for Individual Taxpayer, and (2) Request for Certificate of Default for Business Taxpayer. Both requests must provide the taxpayer's name, address, Social Security Number (or Taxpayer Identification Number, if applicable), New York State Taxpayer Identification Number, and signature. The Request for Certificate of Default for Individual Taxpayer must also provide the taxpayer's date of birth and the type of tax for which they are in default. The Request for Certificate of Default for Business Taxpayer must also provide the business's name, type of business, and the type of tax for which they are in default. The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance will then issue the Certificate of Default, which can be used as proof that the taxpayer is in default of their tax obligations in New York.
