PURPOSE - A completed Form NYC-579-GCT provides documentation that an ERO has been authorized to electronically file the General Corporation Tax return or
other report. The officer of the corporation who is authorized to sign the corporationʼs returns may designate the ERO to electronically sign the return or other report by
entering the officerʼs personal identification number (PIN). The form also authorizes payment of tax due on an electronically submitted return or report by an automatic
clearing house (ACH) debit from a designated checking or savings account of the corporation. You cannot revoke this authorization.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS - Part A must be completed by an officer of the corporation who is authorized to sign the corporation’s return or report before the ERO
transmits the electronically filed Form NYC-3A (Combined General Corporation Tax Return); NYC-3L (General Corporation Tax Return); NYC-4S (General Corporation
Tax Return - short form); NYC-4SEZ (General Corporation Tax Return - EZ form); NYC-EXT (Application for 6-month Extension to File Business Income Tax Return);
NYC-EXT.1 (Application for Additional Extension) or NYC-400 (Declaration of Estimated Tax by General Corporations).
EROs/paid preparers must complete Part B prior to transmitting electronically filed corporation tax returns or reports (Forms NYC-3A, NYC-3L, NYC-4S, NYC-4SEZ,
NYC-EXT, NYC-EXT.1 or NYC-400). Both the paid preparer and the ERO are required to sign Part B. However, if an individual performs as both the paid preparer
and the ERO, he or she is only required to sign as the paid preparer. It is not necessary to include the ERO signature in this case.
Do not mail Form NYC-579-GCT to the Department of Finance. The EROs/paid preparers must keep the completed Form NYC-579-GCT for three years from
the due date of the return or report or the date the return or report was filed, whichever is later, and must present it to the Department of Finance upon request.
