West Virginia’s
ENERGY STAR® Sales Tax Holiday is expanding during its second year by increasing the amount of product purchase price that qualifies for sales exempt status and increasing the length of the holiday. From September 1, 2009 through November 30, 2009, West Virginians can improve their homes and the environment, lower their long-term energy costs, and save money on purchases of
ENERGY STAR® qualified products.
“The
ENERGY STAR Tax Holiday has been an important tool that has allowed our citizens to improve their quality of living by purchasing energy efficient household appliances with less of a financial burden. With this now being the second tax exemption holiday, I hope that more of our citizens have an opportunity to take advantage of this savings, which will also reduce energy consumption and help our environment,” said Governor Joe Manchin.
Governor Manchin introduced the holiday legislation in 2008 and the West Virginia Legislature supported the concept by funding consumer initiatives like this. Attorney General Darrell McGraw’s Office successfully litigated against two credit card companies on behalf of West Virginia consumers. The results will fund future consumer initiatives.
Purchases qualify for the sales and use tax holiday if the purchase is for a product that:
•has been designated as an
ENERGY STAR® product,
•costs $5,000 or less, and
•is for noncommercial home or personal use.
