Ahead of tax season, the Tennessee Department of Revenue is trying to spread the word about the taxability of relief payments received through the Tennessee Business Relief Program (BRP) and Supplemental Employer Recovery Grant (SERG) program. The department says that BRP and SERG payments are subject to Tennessee franchise and excise tax, but they are not subject to business tax. A webpage has been created to help answer questions in this area. Those needing assistance should call 615-253-0600 or email revenue.support@tn.gov.
