SB45,904,18 (2) Any taxpayer may petition the department of revenue to compromise the taxpayer's taxes including the costs, penalties and interest. The petition shall set forth a sworn statement of the taxpayer and shall be in a form that the department prescribes. The department may examine the petitioner under oath concerning the matter and may require the taxpayer to provide the department with financial statements and any other information requested by the department that is related to the petition. If the department finds that the taxpayer is unable to pay the taxes, costs, penalties and interest in full, the department shall determine the amount that the taxpayer is able to pay and shall enter an order reducing the taxes, costs, penalties and interest in accordance with the determination. The order shall provide that the compromise is effective only if paid within 10 days of the date on which the order is issued. The department or its collection agents, upon receipt of the order, shall accept payment in accordance with the order. Upon payment the department shall credit the unpaid portion of the principal amount of the taxes and make appropriate record of the unpaid amount of penalties, costs, and interest accrued to the date of the order. If within 3 years of the date of the compromise order the department ascertains that the taxpayer has an income or property sufficient to enable the taxpayer to pay the remainder of the tax including costs, penalties and interest, the department shall reopen the matter and order the payment in full of the taxes, costs, penalties and interest. Before the entry of the order, a written notice shall be given to the taxpayer advising of the intention of the department to reopen the matter and fixing a time and place for the appearance of the taxpayer if the taxpayer desires a hearing. Upon entry of the order the department shall make an appropriate record of the principal amount of the taxes, penalties, costs and interest ordered to be paid. Such taxes shall be immediately due and payable and shall thereafter be subject to the interest provided by s. 71.82 (2), as that subsection applies to delinquent income and franchise taxes under s. 71.82, and to the delinquent account fee described in s. 73.03 (33m), and the department shall immediately proceed to collect the taxes together with the unpaid portion of penalties, costs, and interest accrued to the date of the compromise order and the fee described in s. 73.03 (33m).
