I'm looking at a car for the wife in Wisconsin. I live in Chicago so my understanding is that I pay the Wisconsin sales tax, and then file a form when I register the vehicle here that will also include paying tax that is the difference between the Wisconsin tax and Chicago's. Does that sound correct? I'll be paying 8.5% even though the county in Wisc is 5.1%.
Can a Wisconsin dealer process Chicago tax? Or am I stuck paying it separately when I register the car.
Also, how does the license plate situation work? I'm guessing I'm solo on that as well?
