§ 27-7-711. Finalization of setoff; notice.

Upon final determination of the amount of the debt due and owing by means of a hearing or by the taxpayer’s default through failure to comply with timely request for review, the claimant agency shall remove the amount of the debt due and owing from the escrow account and credit such amount to the debtor’s obligation. Upon transfer of the debt due and owing from the escrow account to the credit of the debtor’s account, the claimant agency shall notify the debtor in writing of the finalization of the setoff. Such notice shall include a final accounting of the refund which was setoff, including the amount of the refund to which the debtor was entitled prior to the setoff, the amount of the debt due and owing, the amount of the commission’s collection fee, the amount of the refund in excess of the debt which was returned to the debtor by the commission, and the amount of the funds transferred to the claimant agency in excess of the debt determined to be due and owing at a hearing, if such a hearing was held. At such time, the claimant agency shall refund to the debtor the amount of the claimed debt originally certified and transferred to it by the commission in excess of the amount of debt finally found to be due and owing.
