Upon the receipt of the application herein required, and payment of the amount shown thereby to be due for the privilege to be exercised, the officer to whom said application is made shall determine if the application is in proper form, and if the correct amount be tendered, and may require the applicant to furnish such other and further information as in his opinion is necessary to ascertain the correct amount of tax due. When the correct amount of the tax has been so ascertained, the said officer shall issue to the applicant taxpayer a privilege license according to such application, and shall date the same as of the first day of the month of its issuance. The officer issuing the license shall countersign the same when issued by him, and he shall enter the same in the register prescribed by law therefor. The license issued by collectors as herein provided shall be executed in duplicate, the original shall be delivered to the licensee by the officer, and the duplicate shall be attached to the application therefor, and preserved by the officer as a public record.
If, however, such officer, shall, before issuing the said license, or at any time thereafter, have reason to believe that the statements of the business contained in the application are incorrect or false in any material particular, the said officer shall duly notify the applicant wherein the supposed discrepancy lies, and he is hereby empowered to require the applicant to render such other information as will enable him to determine the proper tax due. After making such determination of the proper tax due, if the license has not been issued, such officer shall forthwith proceed to collect the amount of tax due; and if the license shall have been issued under the original application, he shall collect the difference between the sum shown to be properly due, and the sum paid with the original application, and shall issue an additional license therefor which shall expire at the same time as the original. If the additional tax is paid within thirty days after the determination by the officer of the proper amount due, no penalty shall be applied. If the taxpayer shall wilfully fail or refuse to furnish the information requested by such officer, he shall be liable for damages as in other cases of payment of an insufficient privilege tax, and may be proceeded against civilly or criminally as otherwise provided herein, and shall suffer the penalties provided herein therefor.
All licenses issued pursuant to this section shall be good, usable and valid for one year after the date thereof, or for such other period as is fixed by law for the privilege, which period shall be so designated in the license. However, no such license shall be issued for a period longer than one year.
