41.01.030 Form of Claim for Refund

A refund claim must be on a form furnished by the commissioner and must have a "written declaration" by the claimant that it is made under the penalties of perjury. The commissioner may prescribe alternate methods for signing, subscribing, or verifying a return filed by electronic means including telecommunications that shall have the same validity and consequence as the actual signature and written declaration for a paper return. The refund claim must state that the motor vehicle fuel was used or is to be used by the claimant other than in a licensed motor vehicle, the purpose of type of project for which the motor vehicle fuel was used, and such other information as is required. The original invoices or sales tickets proving the purchase of motor vehicle fuel on which the refund is claimed must be attached to the refund claim. The invoices or sales tickets must include the seller's name and address, the date the fuel was purchased, the type of product, the number of gallons [liters} of motor vehicle fuel purchased and the name of the claimant. If the original invoices or sales tickets are lost, the claimant may substitute duplicate invoices or sales tickets plus a separate affidavit on forms prescribed by the commission. A certified history of purchases detailing required information may be accepted by the commissioner in lieu of original sales invoices or sales tickets.
