  1 15 by adding the following new subsection:
  1 16    NEW SUBSECTION.  4.  Notwithstanding subsection 2,
  1 17 a claim for refund of individual income tax paid for
  1 18 any tax year beginning on or after January 1, 1985,
  1 19 and before January 1, 1989, is considered timely if
  1 20 filed with the department on or before October 31,
  1 21 2001, if the taxpayer's claim is the result of the
  1 22 unconstitutional taxation of federal pension benefits
  1 23 based upon the decision in Davis v. Michigan
  1 24 Department of Treasury, 489 U.S. 803, 109 S. Ct. 1500
  1 25 (1989).
  1 26    A taxpayer entitled to a refund of tax paid under
  1 27 this subsection shall receive an amount equal to one
  1 28 hundred percent of the refund without interest.  The
  1 29 claim for refund must be filed separately from any
  1 30 income tax return and a refund shall not be allowed as
  1 31 a credit for income taxes owed.  A claim must be filed
  1 32 between the effective date of this Act and October 31,
  1 33 2001.  An extension for filing shall not be allowed
  1 34 and claims disallowed on the basis of timeliness shall
  1 35 not be allowed upon appeal to any other state agency
  1 36 notwithstanding any other provision of law.
  1 37    The claim for refund must be made on claim forms to
  1 38 be made available by the department.  In order for a
  1 39 taxpayer to have a valid refund claim, the taxpayer
  1 40 must supply legible copies of documents the director
  1 41 deems necessary to show entitlement to the refund,
  1 42 including but not limited to income tax forms and W-2P
  1 43 forms, which will establish the state income tax that
  1 44 was paid on the federal pension benefits for the tax
  1 45 years in question.  The burden of proof is on the
  1 46 taxpayer to show that the claim for refund is valid.
  1 47 Estates are not entitled to file a claim for refund
  1 48 under this subsection, except a spouse of a deceased
  1 49 taxpayer who was the spouse of the taxpayer when the
  1 50 unconstitutional tax was imposed may file a claim for
  2  1 refund without reopening the deceased taxpayer's
  2  2 estate.  If a taxpayer has filed a claim under this
  2  3 subsection and subsequently dies before receipt of the
  2  4 refund, the taxpayer's estate is entitled to receipt
  2  5 of any valid refund claim.
  2  6    The department shall make a reasonable attempt to
  2  7 notify individuals who are entitled to a refund under
  2  8 this subsection".
  2  9    #7.  Page 1, by striking line 30 and inserting the
  2 10 following:  "Sec.    .  EFFECTIVE AND APPLICABILITY
  2 11 DATES.  This Act, being deemed of immediate
  2 12 importance, takes effect upon enactment.  Section 1 of
  2 13 this Act applies".
  2 14    #8.  Title page, line 1, by inserting after the
  2 15 word "Act" the following  "relating to the time and
  2 16 the criteria for filing of claims for refund under the
  2 17 state individual income tax by retired federal
