FISCAL NOTE, 85TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 20, 2017

TO:
Honorable Jane Nelson, Chair, Senate Committee on Finance
 
FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SB1095 by Taylor, Larry (Relating to the deadline to file a petition for redetermination of a tax deficiency determination made by the comptroller.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend Section 111.009 of the Tax Code to extend the deadline for a taxpayer to file a petition for redetermination of a tax deficiency determination made by the Comptroller from the current 30 days to 90 days.

The bill does not amend any provisions governing the amounts of any tax liabilities. The bill could result in lengthening the time to final decision in contested cases by up to 60 days, but would affect both collections of deficiencies and payment of refunds with the effect on timing of net collections expected to be insignificant.
 
The bill would take effect September, 2017.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
