Currently a notice of deficiency from the Department or Revenue must be sent via certified or registered mail.
This bill authorizes the Department to send a notice of deficiency to taxpayers, other than individuals, electronically, upon request. For individual taxpayers, the Department can send the notice of deficiency by first-class mail or electronically at the taxpayer's request.
The bill removes a requirement that any notice sent to an applicant or recipient of the blind pension fund must be sent by certified mail. Instead, the bill allows the notice to be sent by mail delivered by the United States Postal Service, except that, for any notice of adverse actions, as specified in the bill, the notice must also be sent by certified mail delivered by the USPS at the applicant's or recipient's address of record.
Further, this bill removes a requirement that notices of assessments by the Executive Director of the Ethics Commission be sent by mail or registered mail.
This bill is the similar to HB 1489 (2024) and HCS HB 510 (2023).
