Indiana § 9-33-3-1

• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Title 9: MOTOR VEHICLES
• Art. 33: ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
• Ch. 3: Refunds of Certain Fees

Text

(a) This section applies if:
(1) the bureau charges a person a fee in an amount greater than
required by law and the person pays the fee;
(2) the bureau charges a person a fee in error and the person pays
the fee; or
(3) a person pays a fee in error to the bureau.
(b) A person described in subsection (a) may file a claim for a
refund with the bureau on a form furnished by the bureau. The claim
must:
(1) be filed within three (3) years after the date on which the
person pays the fee;
(2) set forth the amount of the refund that the person is claiming;
(3) set forth the reasons the person is claiming the refund; and
(4) include any documentation supporting the claim.
(c) After considering the claim and all evidence relevant to the
claim, the bureau shall issue a decision on the claim, stating the part,
if any, of the refund allowed and containing a statement of the reasons
for any part of the refund that is denied. The bureau shall mail, or send
electronically if the claimant has indicated a preference for receiving
notices from the bureau electronically, a copy of the decision to the
claimant. However, if the bureau allows the full refund claimed, a
warrant for the payment of the claim is sufficient notice of the decision.
(d) If a person disagrees with all or part of the bureau's decision, the
person may file a petition under IC 9-33-2-3.
