N.Y. Tax Law § 806: Procedural provisions

§ 806. Procedural provisions. (a) General. All provisions of article

twenty-two of this chapter will apply to the provisions of this article

in the same manner and with the same force and effect as if the language

of article twenty-two of this chapter had been incorporated in full into

this article and had been specifically adjusted for and expressly

referred to the tax imposed by this article, except to the extent that

any provision is either inconsistent with a provision of this article or

is not relevant to this article. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,

no credit against tax in article twenty-two of this chapter can be used

to offset the tax due under this article.

(b) Combined Filings. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this

article:

(1) The commissioner may require the filing of a combined return

which, in addition to the return provided for in subsection (b) of

section eight hundred four of this article, may also include any of the

returns required to be filed by a taxpayer pursuant to the provisions of

section six hundred fifty-one of this chapter and which may be required

to be filed by such taxpayer pursuant to any local law enacted pursuant

to the authority of article thirty, thirty-A or thirty-B of this

chapter.

(2) Where a combined return is required, and with respect to the

payment of estimated tax, the commissioner may also require the payment

to it of a single amount which shall equal the total of the amounts

(total taxes less any credits or refunds) which would have been required

to be paid with the returns or in payment of estimated tax pursuant to

the provisions of this article, the provisions of article twenty-two of

this chapter, and the provisions of local laws enacted under the

authority of article thirty, thirty-A or thirty-B of this chapter.

(3) Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, the commissioner

may require that all filings of forms or returns under this article must

be filed electronically and all payments of tax must be paid

electronically.
