PURPOSE - a completed form nyc-579-cor provides documentation that an ero has been authorized to electronically file the business 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 trans-

mits the electronically filed form nyc-2a (combined business corporation tax return); nyc-2 (business corporation tax return); nyc-2s (business corporation tax
