Item=5 addresses additional redacting you may wish for your client if you inclu=e any information other than what is on the attached draft Petition. Item 6 relates to reserving your client's right to =articipate in New York's Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance program w=th respect to the subject of the advisory opinion. As you may know, thi= program is designed to encourage taxpayers to come forward and declare un=aid taxes in exchange for NY not imposing penalties or bringing criminal c=arges. I do not know if there is any downside to reserving the ability =o participate in the VDC program-- but it would only apply to sales and us= tax relating to your client's having substituted tangible personal pr=perty into a grantor trust in exchange for other property. If your clie=t has not done this, perhaps it makes no sense to reserve this right. l=am not sure if it "looks suspicious" to check this box. Pe=haps Alan has a better feel for this? Your representative will also need to fi=1 out page 3 of the Petition which is the Power of Attorney and make the r=quired declaration.
