(a) The assigned Board Staff will review a request for relief to:
(1) Determine if the request satisfies the requirements of this article 4C; and
(2) Determine if relief is warranted.
(b) In reviewing a request for relief, the assigned Board Staff may request additional information from the person requesting relief.
(c) Once the review is completed, the assigned Board Staff may determine that:
(1) No relief is warranted;
(2) Partial relief is warranted; or
(3) Full relief is warranted.
(d) Once the determination in subdivision (c) is made, the assigned Board Staff shall prepare and mail the person requesting relief a letter containing his or her decision and an explanation thereof.
(e) If the person requesting relief disagrees with the assigned Board Staff's decision, the person requesting relief may request reconsideration of the decision by the Deputy Director responsible for the tax law concerned. Thereafter, the Deputy Director will prepare and mail the person requesting reconsideration a letter containing his or her decision on the request for reconsideration.
(f) If the person requesting relief disagrees with the Deputy Director's decision under subdivision (e), the person may request an oral hearing before the Board. While a person requesting relief under this section does not have a right to an oral hearing before the Board, a request for an oral hearing on a request for relief may be granted. If a request for an oral hearing is granted, the Board may require that the person requesting relief participate in an appeals conference conducted under article 6 of this chapter prior to the oral hearing.
