SECTION 3004-A
Disclosure of overpayment to taxpayer
Tax (TAX) CHAPTER 60, ARTICLE 41, PART 1
§ 3004-a. Disclosure of overpayment to taxpayer. (a) The department
shall disclose to a taxpayer all instances of overpayment of tax by such
taxpayer discovered by the department during the course of an audit,
assessment, collection or enforcement proceeding.

(b) The time within which a taxpayer may apply for a refund or claim a
credit for an overpayment of tax disclosed pursuant to this section
shall be one hundred twenty days from the date that notice of disclosure
is given to such taxpayer by the department. Failure to apply for a
refund or credit within the one hundred twenty days shall result in the
loss of the right to apply for a refund or credit. Provided, that this
subdivision shall not reduce the time within which a taxpayer may claim
a credit or refund of an overpayment of tax pursuant to any other
provision of this chapter or any other applicable law.

(c) Nothing in this section shall be construed as requiring or
permitting the giving of notice or the payment of a refund or granting
of a credit with respect to a period which, at the time such overpayment
is discovered by the department, is not open for assessment or refund by
virtue of any period of limitations provided for in any tax.
