California tax returns and/or is currently making estimated tax payments to the FTB. An FTB waiver request is made on FTB Form 588, which can be faxed to the FTB at (916) 845-4831.

Payments (E-Payables)

The County of Sacramento has partnered with Bank of America to implement a card payment program, ePayables, offered to County’s suppliers/contractors/vendors. This preferred payment method will reduce paper waste and expedite payments to recipients. Traditional forms of payment (hardcopy checks) remain.

ePayables will not affect payment terms and conditions of any existing contract. Once an invoice is approved for payment, an electronic remittance advice will be sent to the recipient’s email instead of a hardcopy check. The remittance advice will include statement-type information such as: invoice numbers, dates, and invoice amounts. Payments can be retrieved with a County designated account number assigned to the contractor. For more information, go to www.bankofamerica.com/epayablesvendors or contact the Sacramento County Department of Finance at 916-874-7411 (epayables@saccounty.gov).

California Government Code.

CONTRACTOR's activities as they affect the contract duties and purposes herein. COUNTY shall explain procedures for reporting the required information.

B. CONTRACTOR agrees that, pursuant to Government Code section 7522.56, CONTRACTOR shall make best efforts to determine if any of its employees or new hires providing direct services to the county are members of the Sacramento County Employees’ Retirement System (SCERS).
