Sales Tax FAQ

Do I need to fill out and return this form if I only have one residential account?

No, as Salt River Electric has already exempted your domicile from sales tax. However, members with one account are welcome to complete a Declaration of Domicile form if they wish. 

May a member claim the residential utility exemption on all utilities supplied to a primary residence with one meter servicing the home and another meter servicing an outbuilding?

​Yes, the residential utility exemption may apply under the following circumstances: a) the utility meters must serve a single location that is the declared place of domicile, b) the utility services through both meters must be exclusively for residential usage, and c) the resident must submit a fully completed Declaration of Domicile, Form 51A380, for each metered account. ​

If an individual owns two or more homes, lives in one and rents the others, could the other qualify for exemption?

Yes, multiple properties owned by the same party may qualify for a residential exemption if each property is the place of domicile for different Kentucky residents and the utility service provider receives a certificate of domicile for each separately metered account.​
