(f) A partnership, limited liability company, or tax-option corporation may not claim the credit under this subsection.

The partnership, limited liability company, or tax-option corporation shall calculate the amount of the credit which may be claimed by each partner, member, or shareholder and shall provide that information to the partner, member, or shareholder.

71.07(9m)(g)1.1. If a person who claims the credit under this subsection elects to claim the credit based on claiming amounts for expenditures as the expenditures are paid, rather than when the rehabilitation work is completed, the person shall file an election form with the department, in the manner prescribed by the department.
71.07(9m)(g)2.
2. Notwithstanding
s. 71.77, the department may adjust or disallow the credit claimed under this subsection within 4 years after the date that the state historical society notifies the department that the expenditures for which the credit was claimed do not comply with the standards for certification promulgated under
s. 44.02 (24). If the department adjusts or disallows, in whole or in part, a credit transferred under
par. (h), only the person who originally transferred the credit to another person is liable to repay the adjusted or disallowed amount.
