N.J. Admin. Code § 18:7-11.6 - Forms of returns

(a) Returns are required to be made on forms prescribed by the Director. In the case of all taxpayers, annual returns (including accompanying schedules and forms) are required to be filed on the applicable New Jersey corporation business tax return prescribed by the Division of Taxation for a taxpayer's privilege period.
(b) The Director may require any taxpayer to file any other reports and submit any further information the Director may require in the administration of the provisions of the Act.
(c) Every return shall have annexed to it a certification by the president, vice-president, comptroller, secretary, treasurer, assistant treasurer, accounting officer, or any other officer of the taxpayer duly authorized so to act to the effect that the statements contained in the return are true.
1. The fact that an individual's name is signed on a certification of the return shall be prima facie evidence that such individual is authorized to sign and certify the return on behalf of the corporation;
2. In the case of a corporation in liquidation or in the hands of a receiver or trustee, certification shall be made by the person responsible for the conduct of the affairs of the corporation;
3. Annual return forms are supplied by the Division of Taxation but failure to receive a form does not relieve any taxpayer from the obligation to file a return under the provisions of the Act.
(d) Taxpayers must include the credit forms for tax credits claimed for the privilege period even when the tax credit is not being claimed during that privilege period.
