Sec. 111.051. REPORTS AND PAYMENTS; DUE DATES; METHOD OF PAYMENT. (a) The comptroller may set the date for filing a report for and making a payment of a tax imposed by this title.
(b) A date set by the comptroller under this section prevails over a different date prescribed by this title for the filing of a report for or the payment of a tax, except that the comptroller may only set a report or payment date for the state sales and use tax that conflicts with the dates prescribed by Chapter 151 of this code in case of public calamity or natural disaster.
(c) The comptroller may require that all payments from a taxpayer who files tax reports monthly and remits three or more dishonored or insufficient funds checks or drafts within a six-month period be remitted using certified instruments. The comptroller may require that all payments from a taxpayer who files tax reports quarterly and remits three or more dishonored or insufficient funds checks or drafts within an 18-month period be remitted by using certified instruments. In this subsection, "certified instruments" includes cashier's checks and money orders. The comptroller shall send written notice of a payment restriction under this subsection to the taxpayer at the business address shown on the comptroller's records. A failure to remit a payment by a certified instrument after imposition of the payment restriction by the comptroller is grounds for the suspension and revocation of a permit or license as provided by Section 111.0047 of this code.
