§ 11-515 Time and place for filing returns and paying tax.
A person required to make and file a return under this chapter shall, without assessment, notice or demand, pay any tax due thereon to the commissioner of finance on or before the date fixed for filing such return (determined without regard to any extension of time for filing the return). The commissioner of finance shall prescribe by regulation the place for filing any return, declaration, statement, or other document required pursuant to this chapter and for payment of any tax.
§ 11-516 Signing of returns and other documents.
   (a)   General. Any return, declaration, statement or other document required to be made pursuant to this chapter shall be signed in accordance with regulations or instructions prescribed by the commissioner of finance. The fact that an individual's name is signed to a return, declaration, statement, or other document, shall be prima facie evidence for all purposes that the return, declaration, statement or other document was actually signed by such individual.
   (b)   Partnerships. Any return, statement or other document required of a partnership shall be signed by one or more partners. The fact that a partner's name is signed to a return, statement, or other document, shall be prima facie evidence for all purposes that such partner is authorized to sign on behalf of the partnership.
   (c)   Certifications. The making or filing of any return, declaration, statement or other document or copy thereof required to be made or filed pursuant to this chapter, including a copy of a federal return, shall constitute a certification by the person making or filing such return, declaration, statement or other document or copy thereof that the statements contained therein are true and that any copy filed is a true copy.
§ 11-517 Extensions of time.
   (a)   General. The commissioner of finance may grant a reasonable extension of time for payment of tax or estimated tax (or any installment), or for filing any return, declaration, statement, or other document required pursuant to this chapter, on such terms and conditions as it may require. Except for a taxpayer who is outside the United States, no such extension for filing any return, declaration, statement or other document, shall exceed six months.
   (b)   Furnishing of security. If any extension of time is granted for payment of any amount of tax, the commissioner of finance may require the taxpayer to furnish a bond or other security in an amount not exceeding twice the amount for which the extension of time for payment is granted, on such terms and conditions as the commissioner of finance may require.
§ 11-518 Requirements concerning returns, notices, records and statements.
   (a)   General. The commissioner of finance may prescribe regulations as to the keeping of records, the content and forms of returns and statements, and the filing of copies of federal income tax returns and determinations. The commissioner of finance may require any person, by regulation or notice served upon such person, to make such returns, render such statements, or keep such records, as the commissioner of finance may deem sufficient to show whether or not such person is liable under this chapter for tax or for collection of tax.
   (b)   Notice of qualification as receiver, etc. Every receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, assignee for benefit of creditors, or other like fiduciary shall give notice of his or her qualification as such to the commissioner of finance, as may be required by regulation.
§ 11-519 Report of change in federal or New York state taxable income.
If the amount of a taxpayer's federal or New York state taxable income reported on his or her federal or New York state income tax for any taxable year is changed or corrected by the United States internal revenue service or the New York state tax commission or other competent authority, or as the result of a renegotiation of a contract or subcontract with the United States or the state of New York, or if a taxpayer, pursuant to subsection (d) of section sixty-two hundred thirteen of the internal revenue code, executes a notice of waiver of the restrictions provided in subsection (a) of said section, or if a taxpayer, pursuant to subsection (f) of section six hundred eighty-one of the tax law, executes a notice or waiver of the restrictions provided in subsection (c) of such section of the tax law, the taxpayer shall report such change or correction in federal or New York state taxable income or such execution of such notice of waiver and the changes or corrections of the taxpayer's federal or New York state taxable income on which it is based, within ninety days after the final determination of such change, correction, or renegotiation, or such execution of such notice of waiver, or as otherwise required by the commissioner of finance, and shall concede the accuracy of such determination or state wherein it is erroneous. Any taxpayer filing an amended federal or New York state income tax return shall also file within ninety days thereafter an amended return under this chapter, and shall give such information as the commissioner of finance may require. The commissioner of finance may by regulation prescribe such exceptions to the requirements of this section as the commissioner deems appropriate.
§ 11-519.1 Report of change of state sales and compensating use tax liability.
Where the state tax commission changes or corrects a taxpayer's sales and compensating use tax liability with respect to the purchase or use of items for which a sales or compensating use tax credit against the tax imposed by this chapter was claimed, the taxpayer shall report such change or correction to the commissioner of finance within ninety days of the final determination of such change or correction, or as required by the commissioner of finance, and shall concede the accuracy of such determination or state wherein it is erroneous. Any taxpayer filing an amended return or report relating to the purchase or use of such items shall also file within ninety days thereafter a copy of such amended return or report with the commissioner of finance.
