Workgroup Meeting – Computer Software

Article Body

The Colorado Department of Revenue, Division of Taxation, is hosting a workgroup meeting to discuss the development of new rules with respect to legislative changes made to computer software enacted in House Bill 26-1223. The Department has not drafted rules for this workgroup, and is instead seeking input from the public to help determine what issues and guidance the rules should provide.

This virtual workgroup meeting will take place on August 6, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. and will be recorded. If you would like to participate, please register here. The Department has created a Virtual Workgroup Guide that provides additional guidance for participants. More information on how to participate in the workgroup is discussed below.
 
One week before the workgroup meeting, the Department will distribute an agenda for the workgroup. If you have topics you would like to discuss at the workgroup meeting, please send those suggestions to dor_taxrules@state.co.us by July 24, 2026, to be included in the agenda.

What is a workgroup?

A workgroup is a forum for the Department to gather information from the public for the development of new rules or for the revision of existing rules. Workgroups occur in advance of a rulemaking hearing and may or may not incorporate draft rules. The workgroup consists of individuals who have knowledge of the issues being discussed. The workgroup members will be asked to provide their input and insight, along with constructive feedback and suggestions, in an open discussion format.

    This workgroup meeting is being conducted virtually using the Zoom platform.  Video conferencing equipment and an adequate Internet connection are recommended but not required (participation by video is optional).
