If the qualified taxpayer cannot use the entire amount of the tax credit for the
taxable year in which the taxpayer is eligible for the credit, the excess may be
carried over to succeeding taxable years and used as a credit against the premium
tax liability of the taxpayer for those taxable years; except that the credit may not
be carried over to any taxable year that begins after December 31, 2033. Any
amount of the credit that is not timely claimed expires and is not refundable.

insurance company authorized to do business in Colorado that has premium tax
liability. The qualified taxpayer that originally purchased the credit and the
