23VAC10-500-740. Administrative appeal to the Tax Commissioner; incomplete appeals.
A. If the Tax Commissioner receives an appeal that is incomplete, the taxpayer will be given notice stating the information is incomplete. The local assessing officer will be provided a copy of this notice. The taxpayer will be allowed 30 days from the date of such notice to provide the information or 90 days from the date of the local assessing officer's Final Local Determination, whichever is longer.
B. Additional time to produce the missing items will be granted in compelling circumstances but only if the taxpayer makes such an extension request in writing within the time allowed under subsection A. A copy of the request for additional time shall be mailed to the local assessing officer.
C. If the taxpayer fails to provide missing item(s) within the time allotted, the Tax Commissioner may proceed to decide the appeal based on available information making such inferences from the failure or refusal to provide requested information as may be appropriate under the circumstances. If sufficient information is unavailable to permit an adequate analysis, the appeal will be dismissed.
