criminal prosecution and all civil penalties and fees which may be
assessed under any KRS chapter subject to the administrative
jurisdiction of the department for the taxable years or periods for which
tax amnesty is requested.

For the amnesty periods described in KRS 131.400(4), the
Commonwealth shall waive interest as provided in subsection (1) of

(b) Except when the taxpayer and department enter into an installment payment

This section shall not apply to any taxpayer who is on notice, written or otherwise,
of a criminal investigation being conducted by an agency of the state or any political
subdivision thereof or the United States, nor shall this section apply to any taxpayer
who is the subject of any criminal litigation which is pending on the date of the
taxpayer's application in any court of this state or the United States for nonpayment,
delinquency, evasion or fraud in relation to any federal taxes or to any of the taxes
to which this amnesty program is applicable.
No refund or credit shall be granted for any interest, fee, or penalty paid prior to the
time the taxpayer requests amnesty pursuant to KRS 131.420.
Unless the department in its own discretion redetermines the amount of taxes due,
no refund or credit shall be granted for any taxes paid under the amnesty program.
Any administrative or judicial proceeding or claim seeking the refund or recovery of
any amount paid under an amnesty program is hereby barred.
