Tesla owes Nevada more than $650,000 in unpaid taxes, according to a document filed Monday in District Court in Las Vegas, but the electric automaker claims they're all paid up and a clerical error is to blame.

The Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation filed the document seeking a judgment against the company for failing to pay the amount it owes for two consecutive quarters.

According to the document, Tesla paid more than $123 million in wages in Nevada during the first half of 2018.

During the same time frame, the company was supposed to pay about $2.8 million in unemployment taxes, money that’s used to pay unemployment benefits.

However, the document states Tesla’s payments fell short of the amount owed by $650,464. With interest, the state claims Tesla now owes $654,504.

“This is for an unemployment tax, for the compensation fund,” said DETR spokesperson Rosa Mendez, who added that such filings are common.

“It is not anything atypical, it just happens to be Tesla,” Mendez said.

A Tesla spokesperson responded to a request for comment:

“Since Tesla acquired SolarCity and incorporated all of its employees, we’ve been in discussions with states over new unemployment insurance contribution rates, which is typical in acquisitions like this. This judgment is the result of a clerical error, and we have processed this payment today to reflect the latest unemployment insurance contribution rates.

"Over the past 18 months, Tesla has already paid over $3.3 million in unemployment taxes to Nevada.”

Unemployment insurance is a tax on employers. An employer’s tax rate is based on a complex formula that includes 2.95 percent of taxable wages and other factors.

Tesla has hired thousands of employees to build and operate its Gigafactory near Sparks that produces lithium ion batteries for cars built in Fremont, Calif.

In 2014, the Nevada Legislature and Gov. Brian Sandoval approved state subsidies worth an estimated $1.3 billion over two decades to entice the company to build the factory in Nevada.

Capital spending at the Gigafactory has exceeded $4 billion, a figure that’s higher than the benchmark the state set for Tesla to be eligible for incentives.
