THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-

Section 1. Subdivision (c) of section 688 of the tax law, as amended
by chapter 377 of the laws of 1999, is amended to read as follows:
(c) Income tax refund within [forty-five] THIRTY days of claim for
overpayment.--If any overpayment of tax imposed by this article is cred-
ited or refunded within [forty-five] THIRTY days after the last date
prescribed (or permitted by extension of time) for filing the return of
such tax on which such overpayment was claimed or within [forty-five]
THIRTY days after such return was filed, whichever is later, or within
six months after a demand is filed pursuant to paragraph six of
subsection (b) of section six hundred fifty-one of this chapter, no
interest shall be allowed under this section on any such overpayment. In
regard to an amended return claiming such overpayment or a claim for
credit or refund on which such overpayment was claimed, if such overpay-
ment is refunded within [forty-five] THIRTY days of filing such return
or such claim, no interest shall be allowed from the date such return or
such claim is filed until the day the refund is made. For purposes of
this subsection, any amended return or claim for credit or refund filed
before the last day prescribed (or permitted by extension of time) for
the filing of the return of tax for such year shall be considered as
filed on such last day.
S 2. This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to taxable
years commencing on and after January 1, 2009.
