Application for New Mexico Retail Food Store Certification

 

 

for the food deduction pursuant to Section 7-9-92 NMSA 1978

 

INSTRUCTIONS

Who Must File This Form Effective January 1, 2005, receipts of certain retail food stores from the sale of food intended for home consumption are deductible from gross receipts pursuant to Section 7-9-92 NMSA 1978. To qualify as a retail food store eligible to take the new deduction for sales of certain foods against gross receipts tax, the establishment either must file this application for New Mexico Retail Food Store Certification, or be currently authorized to accept food stamps under the federal Food Stamp Act. A taxpayer who can accept food stamps under the federal Food Stamp Act is a retail food store for purposes of Section 7-9-92 NMSA 1978 for tax periods during which the taxpayer is authorized to accept food stamps. Such a taxpayer does not require state certification to take the food deduction against gross receipts.

Complete this application and submit it to the department. When approved, you will receive a New Mexico Retail Food Store Certification and may begin taking the deduction for qualified sales of certain foods pursuant to Section 7-9-92 NMSA 1978. Mark the box in PART 1 if you are requesting certification retroactive to January 1, 2005.

Qualifying as a retail food store: To qualify, a retail store must meet at least one of two criteria the federal government sets. It either must stock and offer a variety of foods on a continuous basis in each of four staple food categories - two of which must be perishable foods - or function as a specialty store attributing 50% or more of its gross retail sales to staple foods. The terms food, retail food store, staple food and variety are defined in the federal Food Stamp Act of 1964. See these important definitions below. Stores selling only accessory foods including spices, candy, soft drinks, tea or coffee, ice cream, or dough- nuts or bakeries not selling bread are ineligible. These stores stores do not qualify to accept food stamps and therefore do not qualify as retail food stores for the gross receipts tax deducion in New Mexico.

IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS

Food Any food or food product intended for human consumption, except alcoholic beverages, tobacco, hot foods and hot food products prepared for immediate consumption. Food also includes seeds and plants to grow foods for personal con- sumption of households according to 7 USCA 2012(g)(1).

Retail Food Store An establishment that sells food for home preparation and consumption. For New Mexico purposes the establishment must meet the federal definition of retail food store in 7-USCA 2012(K)(1) for federal food stamp purposes whether or not it actually participates in the federal Food Stamp Program. Stores or markets where staple sales make up less than 50% of gross receipts, concessions, sidewalk or open-air vendors and vending machines do not qualify. Do not include coffee, tea, cocoa, carbonated and non-carbonated drinks, candy, condiments and spices in the 50%.

Variety Enough items (no fewer than 3) in each of the staple food groups listed below to meet most people’s food needs. Staple Food (1) Bread, rice, pasta, (2) dairy foods, (3) fruits and vegetables and (4) meats (fresh, packaged, canned or frozen). Do not count hot foods, prepared foods such as sandwiches or salads, candy, condiments, spices, coffee, tea, cocoa, or carbonated or non-carbonated drinks.

Perishable foods Fresh, frozen or refrigerated food that could spoil in two or three weeks.
