Who is required to file a personal property report known as the form of list?
Any individuals, partnerships, associations, trusts and corporations that own or hold tangible personal property on January 1 preceding the fiscal year, must file a form of list (State Tax Form 2).

The owner must identify and describe the property, including make and year of manufacture, and further provide the purchase price or original cost and year of purchase. The owner does not have to include an estimate of value.

The list of property is filed under oath.
