| This bill provides an exemption from penalties and interest for failure to timely pay occupation taxes, regulatory fees, administrative fees, or license fees when the default is due to a taxpayer's military service in a combat zone and not due to neglect or disregard for the law. Unpaid taxes and fees would be due within 60 days of the taxpayer's return from overseas military duty. |
