The state tax commissioner could electronically file levies against personal property under a bill advanced from general file Jan. 14.<\/p>\n
LB33, introduced by Kearney Sen. Galen Hadley, would authorize the state Department of Revenue to contract with in-state financial institutions for an electronic levy pilot project. Hadley said the project represents a way for the department to use technology to lower administrative costs.<\/p>\n
\u201cSignificant progress has already been made,\u201d Hadley said, \u201cbut additional efficiencies can be achieved through a partnership with the private sector.\u201d<\/p>\n
The bill also makes a number of changes, including:
\n\u2022 allowing the department to waive the traditional three-year statutory lien period when a taxpayer has entered into an agreement to satisfy an overdue tax liability;
\n\u2022 repealing the individual income tax return checkoff for contributions to the Campaign Finance Limitation Cash Fund; and
\n\u2022 authorizing the imposition of a 25 percent penalty for filing a late tobacco products tax return.<\/p>\n
A committee amendment, adopted 29-0, removed a provision that would have allowed financial institutions to levy against real property.<\/p>\n
Senators voted to advance the bill on a 35-0 vote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
