xj_2000gray	DMV sales tax exemption? Bought my Jeep in NY in 2010 from my sister for cheap, registered with NY and paid the sales tax with initial registration in my name. Joined the Navy and moved to SC where I registered the car and was exempt from sales tax being active duty. Now I got out, back to NY. Need to register car in NY again, Now do I need to pay the sales tax again or am I exempt? Seeing how I paid NY sales tax on the Jeep back in 2010... and the Jeep has always been in my name since then. Any help would be appreciated!

The sales tax exemption is based upon the current status you have that qualifies you for it,military,etc. NY only gives exemption as of now to disabled veterans and a few other situations.
