<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:110%"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:110%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">(Salem, OR) — Governor Kate Brown today announced new measures the Oregon Department of Revenue will take to provide tax
relief to Oregon small businesses suffering from the economic impacts of COVID-19. These measures will eliminate penalties and interests on 2019 income tax due from Oregon businesses who are struggling to pay tax bills amid COVID-19 restrictions.<br>
<br>
“I have heard from business owners across the state about the struggle to keep their doors open during these difficult times," said Governor Brown. "Small business owners who play by the rules shouldn’t face penalties and fees because COVID-19 has robbed them
of their livelihood. In March, the Department of Revenue implemented measures to help all taxpayers navigate COVID-19. Today we are announcing an expansion of that relief to help business owners who are struggling.”<br>
<br>
The additional tax relief provisions apply to Personal Income, Corporate Excise, and Corporate Income taxes:
