§ 11-1119 Determinations of place of primary use of wireless telecommunications services.

AC § 11-1119

a. A home service provider shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining the customer's place of primary use as defined in subdivision twenty of section 11-1101 of this chapter. Except as provided in subdivision b of this section, if the home service provider's reliance on the information provided by its customer is in good faith: (1) the home service provider can rely on the applicable residential or business street address supplied by the home service provider's customer; and (2) the home service provider shall not be held liable for any additional taxes under this chapter based on a different determination of the place of primary use. b. The commissioner of finance, or the commissioner of taxation and finance of the state of New York on behalf of the commissioner of finance, may determine that the address used by a home service provider for purposes of this chapter does not meet the definition of place of primary use as defined in subdivision twenty of section 11-1101 of this chapter and may give binding notice to the home service provider to change the place of primary use on a prospective basis from the date of notice of determination if: (1) where the determination is made by the commissioner of finance, such commissioner obtains the consent of all affected taxing jurisdictions within this state before giving such notice of determination; and (2) before the commissioner of finance or the commissioner of taxation and finance of the state of New York gives such notice of determination, the customer is given an opportunity to demonstrate, in accordance with applicable procedures established by the commissioner of finance making the determination, that that address is the customer's place of primary use. c. Except as provided in subdivision b of this section, a home service provider may treat the address used by the home service provider for purposes of this chapter for the last taxable period beginning before August first, two thousand two, for any customer under a service contract or agreement in effect on July twenty-eighth, two thousand two as that customer's place of primary use for the remaining term of such service contract or agreement, excluding any extension or renewal of such service contract or agreement.
