Section 3.6.7.49 - CLAIMS FOR REFUND - CIVIL ACTIONA.PROTEST IS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO CLAIM FOR REFUND: The initiation of a protest under Section 7-38-22 or 7-38-24 NMSA 1978 constitutes an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of the right to claim for refund under Section 7-38-40 NMSA 1978.B.COUNTY TREASURER OR ASSESSOR REQUIRED TO FORWARD TO DEPARTMENT COPIES OF CLAIM FOR REFUND PETITIONS OR COMPLAINTS SERVED ON THEM: When a claim for refund petition or complaint is served on either a county assessor or county treasurer, the county assessor or county treasurer is required to immediately forward a copy of that petition or complaint to the director.C. PAYMENT OF TAX REQURIED. Payment of the tax due is required to initiate a claim for refund. Because the property owner may elect to pay the tax in installments, payment of all installments due by the time the claim for refund is filed is sufficient to permit the property owner to submit a claim for refund. To preserve the claim for refund with respect to any installments due after the claim for refund was submitted but before a decision is rendered, payment of the installment must be made. The county treasurer must place in the "property tax suspense fund" the portion of any property taxes paid to the county treasurer but not admitted to be due and subject to a claim for refund. If the claim for refund does not admit that any portion of an installment of tax due in the future is due, then the portion of the installment, when paid, must be placed in the "property tax suspense fund".N.M.
