Do any of the Indiana resadm-l'ers know if there is any way to avoid having
to register with the Indiana Dept of Revenue to do subawards to and from
Indiana state universities?

UT Austin just received a letter from the Indiana revenue folks informing us
that we need to register with them and we will be "...required to file
periodic sales tax returns even when you have no applicable sales subject to
Indiana sales and use tax".  I suspect this notice is related to a subaward
made to an Indiana state university but I do not know for certain.

We really do not want to have to register and file tax returns to do
subawards since we are a state funded institution that is exempt from sales
tax.

Any information/assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
