Duplicate on Pay.gov

[Newbie in CA]

Another Pay.gov form question.

I am aware that we are meant to submit our TTB forms in duplicate. In pay.gov when you finish a form and it has saved there is a button next to it that says 'duplicate' - this may sound stupid but is that what they want me to do - simply hit the button to make two copies? Or is there some other way to duplicate them online in pay.gov?

thanks

This makes a duplicate of the form so you don't have to fill in every bit the next time you file the same form.

Thanks Keith, that makes sense.

We just filled out our first monthly reports for July manually. We have a Pay.gov logon now and will use that for August. In July I had the same question. The form instructions state to print the forms in duplicate. I thought that they wanted us to send them two copies of the forms. I called the TTB for clarification. They said that the duplicate form was for us to keep for our permanent records. See TTB regulations § 19.571 Records in general. paragraph 'c'.
