9-33-3-1. Applicability; claims for refunds; contents; procedure
Sec. 1. (a) This section applies if:
(1) the bureau charges a person a fee in an amount greater than required by law and the person pays the fee;
(2) the bureau charges a person a fee in error and the person pays the fee; or
(3) a person pays a fee in error to the bureau.
(b) A person described in subsection (a) may file a claim for a refund with the bureau on a form furnished by the bureau. The claim must:
(1) be filed within three (3) years after the date on which the person pays the fee;
(2) set forth the amount of the refund that the person is claiming;
(3) set forth the reasons the person is claiming the refund; and
(4) include any documentation supporting the claim.
(c) After considering the claim and all evidence relevant to the claim, the bureau shall issue a decision on the claim, stating the part, if any, of the refund allowed and containing a statement of the reasons for any part of the refund that is denied. The bureau shall mail a copy of the decision to the claimant. However, if the bureau allows the full refund claimed, a warrant for the payment of the claim is sufficient notice of the decision.
(d) If a person disagrees with all or part of the bureau's decision, the person may file a petition under IC 9-33-2-3.
