The payment of any bill rendered under paragraph (1) of this Code section shall be made not later than 30 days after such bill was mailed to the last known address of the organization or was otherwise delivered to it unless there has been an application for review and redetermination in accordance with paragraph (4) of this Code section; (3) Payments made not to be deducted from remuneration of individuals.

The Commissioner shall promptly review and reconsider the amount due specified in the billing notice and shall thereafter issue a redetermination in any case in which such application for redetermination has been filed.
