If

The

If

intentionally
fails
to

However,
a
person
foreclosing
on
a

not

for
purposes
of
this
paragraph.
The
24
department
may
waive
the
liability
of
the
immediate
successor
25
under

paragraph
if
the
immediate
successor
exercised

faith
in
establishing
the

in
conjunction
with
the
community
colleges,
the

project
1
cities,
and
the
department
of
economic
development,
to
engage
2
in
a
review
of
certain
withholding
credit
programs.
After
3
conducting
the
review,
the
department
is
required
to
develop
4
a
plan
under
which
the
withholding
credits
are
remitted
first
5
to
the
department
before
being
transferred
to
the
community
6
colleges
or
the
pilot
project
cities
under
the
various
7
withholding
credit
programs.
The
department
must
submit
a
8
report
containing
the
results
of
the
review
and
the
plan
to
the
9
general
assembly
and
the

Division
II
amends
Code
section

extend
by
two
years
11
the
period
for
claiming
the
industrial
real
estate
or
cattle
12
facilities
property
tax
exemptions.
Currently,
a
taxpayer
13
cannot
claim
one
of
these
exemptions
unless
it
is
claimed
in
14
the
first
year
the
property
is
eligible
for
the
exemption.
15
Division
III
allows
the
department
to
share
certain
taxpayer
16
information
with
the
department
of
workforce
development
for
17
purposes
of
assisting
in
the
identification
of
misclassified
18
workers.
The
division
is
effective
upon
enactment.
19
Division
IV
relates
to
penalties
for
the
filing
of
false
or
20
frivolous
claims
for
tax
credit.
Code
section
421.27
currently
21
provides
a
penalty
for
the
filing
of
false
or
frivolous
refund
22
claims.
Division
IV
extends
this
penalty
to
false
or
frivolous
23
claims
for
credits
as
well.
24
Division
V
relates
to
the
accrual
of
interest
on
tax
refunds.
25
Currently,
there
are
many
references
in
the
Code
to
the
date
on
26
which
interest
begins
to
accrue
on
tax
refunds.
That
date
is
27
typically
the
first
day
of
the
second
calendar
month
following
28
the
date
the
return
was
due
to
be
filed.
Division
V
amends
all
29
such
Code
sections
to
specify
that
interest
begins
to
accrue
on
30
the
first
day
of
the
third
calendar
month
following
the
date
31
the
return
was
due
to
be
filed.
The
division
is
effective
upon
32
enactment
and
applies
to
returns
due
on
or
after
April
30,
33
2010.
