(b) (1) If the department grants permission to any person to pay tax by electronic funds transfer, such person shall, except as provided in subdivision (2) of this subsection, be regarded, for the period for which such permission is granted, as a person who is required under section 12-686 to pay a tax by electronic funds transfer. If such person gives notice, by certified mail, to the department, at least sixty days before the expiration of such period, that such person no longer chooses to pay tax by electronic funds transfer beyond such period, such person shall cease to be regarded as a person who is required under section 12-686 to pay a tax by electronic funds transfer after the expiration of such period. If such person does not give such notice, such person shall cease to be regarded as a person who is required under section 12-686 to pay tax by electronic funds transfer sixty days after notice is given, by certified mail, to the department that the person no longer chooses to pay tax by electronic funds transfer. (2) If the department grants permission to any person to pay a tax by electronic funds transfer, any tax payment made by electronic funds transfer by such person shall be treated as a tax payment made in a timely manner as long as such transfer is initiated on or before the date such tax is due, notwithstanding the fact that the bank account designated by the department may not be credited by electronic funds transfer for the amount of such payment on or before said due date.
