CHAPTER 1. General Provisions [18401 - 18417]
( Chapter 1 added by Stats. 1993, Ch. 31, Sec. 26. )
ARTICLE 2. Continuity with Prior Law [18412 - 18417]
The provisions of this part insofar as they are substantially the same as statutory provisions relating to the same subject matter in Part 10 (commencing with Section 17001) or Part 11 (commencing with Section 23001), as those provisions, including applicable regulations, existed on December 31, 1993, shall be construed as restatements and continuations thereof, and not as new enactments.
The repeal of any provision in Part 10 (commencing with Section 17001) or Part 11 (commencing with Section 23001) made by the act adding this section shall not affect any act done or any right accruing or accrued, or any suit, appeal, or other proceeding having commenced under Part 10 (commencing with Section 17001) or Part 11 (commencing with Section 23001), before that repeal; but all rights and liabilities under that law shall continue, and may be enforced in the same manner, as if that repeal had not been made.
Any provision of this part that refers to the application of any portion of this part to a prior period (or which depends upon the application to a prior period of any portion of this part) shall, when appropriate and consistent with the purpose of that provision, be deemed to refer to (or depend upon the application of) the corresponding provision of Part 10 (commencing with Section 17001) or Part 11 (commencing with Section 23001) as was applicable to the prior period.
Unless otherwise specifically provided therein, the provisions of any act:
(a) That affect the imposition or computation of taxes, additions to tax other than Sections 19136 or 19142, penalties, or the allowance of credits against the tax, shall be applied to taxable years beginning on or after January 1 of the year in which the act takes effect.
(b) That change the provisions of Sections 19023 to 19027, inclusive, (relating to payment of estimated tax) or Section 19136 or Sections 19142 to 19151, inclusive, (relating to underpayment of estimated tax) shall be applied to taxable years beginning on or after January 1 of the year immediately after the year in which the act takes effect.
(c) That otherwise affect the provisions of this part shall be applied on and after the date the act takes effect.
(Amended by Stats. 2000, Ch. 862, Sec. 4. Effective January 1, 2001.)
(a) Unless expressly otherwise provided in this part, any notice may be given by first-class mail postage prepaid.
(b) For purposes of this part, any notice mailed to a taxpayer shall be sufficient if mailed to the taxpayer’s last known address.
(c) The last known address shall be the address that appears on the taxpayer’s last return filed with the Franchise Tax Board, unless the taxpayer has provided to the Franchise Tax Board clear and concise written or electronic notification of a different address, or the Franchise Tax Board has an address it has reason to believe is the most current address for the taxpayer.
(Amended by Stats. 2007, Ch. 341, Sec. 2. Effective January 1, 2008.)
18416.5.
(a) The Franchise Tax Board may, by regulation, implement an alternative communication method that would allow the Franchise Tax Board, at the request of the taxpayer or the taxpayer’s authorized representative, to provide notification to the taxpayer in a preferred electronic communication method designated by the taxpayer that a notice, statement, bill, or other communication required or authorized under Part 10 (commencing with Section 17001), this part, or Part 11 (commencing with Section 23001) is available for viewing in the taxpayer’s limited access secure folder on the Franchise Tax Board’s Internet Web site and would allow the taxpayer or the taxpayer’s authorized representative to file a protest, notification, and other communication to the Franchise Tax Board in a secure manner. Prior to obtaining the consent of a taxpayer to participate in the alternative communication method authorized by this section, the Franchise Tax Board shall advise the taxpayer or the taxpayer’s authorized representative of the ramifications of electing to receive notifications from the Franchise Tax Board in the manner selected and of failing to take appropriate action in response to one or more of those notifications.
(b) Sending electronic notification to a taxpayer or the taxpayer’s authorized representative pursuant to the taxpayer’s request made in accordance with regulations authorized under subdivision (a) shall not be considered a violation of Section 19542 or 19542.1. Any electronic notification provided to a taxpayer using the alternative communication method authorized by this section shall include plain language advising the taxpayer that a failure to act may cause the taxpayer to forego procedural or administrative rights to challenge the proposed action.
(c) This section shall cease to be operative with respect to a notice, statement, bill, protest, or other communication between the Franchise Tax Board and a taxpayer on or after January 1, 2025, and is, as of that date, repealed. The repeal of this section shall not be interpreted or applied to invalidate any notice, statement, bill, protest, or other communication between the Franchise Tax Board and a taxpayer prior to that date using the alternative communication method authorized by this section prior to its repeal.
(d) Notwithstanding any other law regarding the use of United States mail, any notice, statement, bill, protest, and other communication from the Franchise Tax Board to a taxpayer or the taxpayer’s authorized representative and from a taxpayer or the taxpayer’s authorized representative to the Franchise Tax Board pursuant to the alternative communication method authorized by this section shall be treated as if it were mailed by United States mail, postage prepaid.
(Amended by Stats. 2017, Ch. 177, Sec. 1. (AB 1720) Effective January 1, 2018. Repealed as of January 1, 2025, by its own provisions in subd. (c).)
