Reminder: What to do if you receive an “F5” error message when logging into the Online Assessment Community
If you have trouble logging into the Online Assessment Community, it may be easily resolved by closing all of your browser windows and opening a new browser window.
If that doesn’t work, try clearing your browser history and cookies, before closing and opening a new browser window.
Reminder: Review your sales reports
Don’t delay! Review your sales reports in the Online Assessment Community. The deadline is August 31. Your timely review is very important because we’ll use the sales data to begin the process of calculating 2021 equalization rates and RARs.
For more information, see Sales usability criteria.
On the arms-length report, there is a column which indicates whether the sale is COD/RAR usable. If you find a mistake or need to correct a sale, follow these instructions:
- RPS users: within your RPS file, make the correction and then re-transmit it by going to Standard Reports > Sales > Sales Transmittal Report. Please email the RPS035 to ORPTS.saleint@tax.ny.gov. The ORPTS sales database and online sales reports will be updated with the corrections.
- If you submit paper reports, use Form RP-5217 ACR, Sale Correction Form. Email the completed forms to ORPTS.saleint@tax.ny.gov or mail them to:
