(a) Procedure. - A taxpayer who objects to a proposed denial of a refund or a proposed assessment of tax may request a Departmental review of the proposed action by filing a request for review. The request for review must be in the form prescribed by the Secretary and include an explanation for the request for review. The request must be filed with the Department as follows:
(1) Within 45 days of the date the notice of the proposed denial of the refund or proposed assessment was mailed to the taxpayer, if the notice was delivered by mail.
(2) Within 45 days of the date the notice of the proposed denial of the refund or proposed assessment was delivered to the taxpayer, if the notice was delivered in person.
(3) At any time between the date that inaction by the Department on a request for refund is considered a proposed denial of the refund and the date the time periods set in the other subdivisions of this subsection expire.
(b) Filing. - A request for a Departmental review of a proposed denial of a refund or a proposed assessment is considered filed on the following dates:
(1) For a request that is delivered in person, the date it is delivered.
(2) For a request that is mailed, the date determined in accordance with G.S. 105-263.
(3) For a request delivered by another method, the date the Department receives it.
(c) FTP Penalty. - A request for a Departmental review of a proposed assessment is considered a request for a Departmental review of a failure to pay penalty that is based on the assessment. A taxpayer who does not request a Departmental review of a proposed assessment may not request a Departmental review of a failure to pay penalty that is based on the assessment but is assessed on a subsequent date in another notice.
