40.140 Setting off tax delinquency against bonus. (1) (a) If a claim is approved by the administrator or finally approved upon resort to the board of review, in whole or in part the administrator shall promptly <br>certify to the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet the names <br>and addresses of persons found entitled to be paid, as shown in the <br>application, and the amount payable to each. (b) A copy of each such certificate shall be sent to the secretary of revenue, who shall promptly ascertain from the records of his cabinet whether any person <br>proposed to be paid a veterans' bonus is delinquent in the payment of any tax <br>liability to the Commonwealth. No delinquency shall be deemed to exist as to <br>any asserted tax liability which is the subject of a bona fide dispute. If any <br>delinquency be found to exist, the secretary of revenue shall within three (3) <br>working days after this receipt of the certificate, furnish the details thereof to <br>the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet; and if no advice of <br>tax delinquency is received by the secretary of the Finance and Administration <br>Cabinet before the end of the fourth working day after his receipt of <br>certification from the administrator, he shall, for the purposes of this chapter, <br>conclusively presume that no delinquency of tax liability to the <br>Commonwealth exists; but such presumption shall apply only to the existence <br>or absence of a setoff by the Commonwealth against a certified claim for a <br>veterans' bonus, and shall not alter the facts as between the Commonwealth <br>and any taxpayer. (c) If no advice of tax delinquency is received within such allowed time, the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet may approve payment in <br>accordance with the certificate of the administrator, and may immediately <br>draw a warrant on the State Treasury for a check in payment. (d) Upon receipt of such warrant the State Treasurer shall issue a check in accordance therewith payable from the proceeds of bonds in accordance with <br>this chapter, and the same shall promptly be mailed to the payee thereof at the <br>address shown in the certificate. (2) (a) If the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet shall, within the allowed time, receive advice from the secretary of revenue of the existence of <br>a delinquency on the part of any person having an approved claim for a <br>veterans' bonus, as to any tax liability to the Commonwealth, the secretary of <br>the Finance and Administration Cabinet shall note the same on the certificate <br>of the administrator, withhold payment, and forthwith send to the claimant by <br>certified mail, return receipt requested a notice of the asserted delinquency, <br>and the amount thereof, and that it is proposed that the same be set off against <br>the veterans' bonus payment. (b) If the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet receives no protest in his office within ten (10) working days after recording such notice, he shall <br>conclusively presume that the proposed setoff is just, shall apply the amount <br>thereof in reduction or extinguishment of the payment certified by the <br>administrator, and shall advise the secretary of revenue of the amount set off against the veterans' bonus, which advice shall be noted by the secretary of <br>revenue on the records of his office as a credit upon the delinquent tax <br>liability. (c) If the tax setoff does not consume the entire amount of the veterans' bonus as certified by the administrator, the secretary shall draw a warrant upon the <br>State Treasury for a check in the amount of the remainder, and upon receiving <br>such check from the State Treasurer shall send the same, together with advice <br>of the setoff, by mail, to the payee at the address shown in the certificate of the <br>administrator. (3) If the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet receives from the claimant a protest of the asserted tax delinquency, within the allowed time, the <br>secretary shall withhold approval for payment, and shall refer the protest to the <br>secretary of revenue for disposition. (4) If a tax setoff is made, and the claimant shall assert error with regard thereto, the exclusive remedy shall be by seeking refund from the secretary of revenue. Effective: July 15, 1980 <br>History: Amended 1980 Ky. Acts ch. 114, sec. 7, effective July 15, 1980. -- Amended 1978 Ky. Acts ch. 155, sec. 41, effective June 17, 1978. -- Amended 1974 Ky. Acts <br>ch. 74, Art. II, sec. 9(2); and ch. 315, sec. 4. -- Created 1960 Ky. Acts ch. 15, sec. 14.
