1.  On or before January 15 of each year, the Department shall prepare and furnish to the Nevada Tax Commission a report that shows all money owed to the Department for delinquent payments of any tax administered by the Department during the preceding year.

Terms Used In Nevada Revised Statutes 360.264

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • Department: means the Department of Taxation. See Nevada Revised Statutes 360.001
  • Obligation: An order placed, contract awarded, service received, or similar transaction during a given period that will require payments during the same or a future period.

2.  The Department shall include in the report prepared pursuant to subsection 1 the amount of any delinquent taxes that the Department determines is impossible or impractical to collect.

3.  If the Department determines that it is impossible or impractical to collect any amount of delinquent taxes, the Nevada Tax Commission shall request that the State Board of Examiners designate such amount as a bad debt. The State Board of Examiners, by an affirmative vote of the majority of the members of the Board, may designate the delinquent taxes as a bad debt if the Board is satisfied that the collection of the delinquent taxes is impossible or impractical. If the amount of the delinquent taxes is not more than $50, the State Board of Examiners may delegate to its Clerk the authority to designate delinquent taxes as a bad debt. The Nevada Tax Commission may appeal to the State Board of Examiners a denial by the Clerk of a request to designate delinquent taxes as a bad debt.

4.  Upon the designation of delinquent taxes as a bad debt pursuant to this section, the State Board of Examiners or its Clerk shall immediately notify the State Controller thereof. Upon receiving the notification, the State Controller shall direct the removal of the bad debt from the books of account of the State of Nevada. A bad debt that is removed pursuant to this section remains a legal and binding obligation owed by the debtor to the State of Nevada.

5.  The State Controller shall keep a master file of all delinquent taxes that are designated as bad debts pursuant to this section. For each such debt, the State Controller shall record the name of the debtor, the amount of the debt, the date on which the debt was incurred and the date on which it was removed from the records and books of account of the State of Nevada, and any other information concerning the debt that the State Controller determines is necessary.
