What if I already paid sales or use tax that was more than what I'd owe in West Virginia?
If you already paid sales or use tax to another state or municipality outside West Virginia that is equal to or more than the amount of use tax due to West Virginia or one of its municipalities, then you don't need to enter this purchase on this screen.
Example: You purchase an item subject to tax in Ohio and pay 7% sales tax (6% state tax and 1% local tax). You live in an area in West Virginia that imposes a 1% municipal use tax with 6% the state rate, for a total of 7%. You would not need to enter this purchase on this screen.
You can find your local tax rate on this table .
