1. If a taxpayer provides written documentation during an audit that indicates that the taxpayer relied to his or her detriment on written advice provided by an officer, agent or employee of the Department, an opinion of the Attorney General or the Commission, or the written results of an audit of his or her records conducted by the Department, the auditor shall document the facts and circumstances relating to the issue for the audit file and shall continue the audit. Such documentation may include, without limitation:

(a) An advisory opinion issued by the Department pursuant to NAC 360.190, 360.195 and 360.200 in response to the request of the taxpayer for advice on an issue, if the facts contained in the request are similar to the facts of the transactions under review in the current audit;

(b) A letter issued by the Department to the taxpayer regarding the manner in which to account for the specific types of transactions under review in the current audit;

(c) Written documentation which establishes that the taxpayer has been audited previously by the Department and that the results of that audit conflict with the results of the current audit;

(d) An opinion or decision of the Attorney General or the Commission that addresses an issue or circumstances that are similar to the specific types of transactions under review in the current audit; and

(e) A letter issued by the Department to the taxpayer that defines the items, scope and issues reviewed in a prior audit which are similar to the specific types of transactions under review in the current audit. The occurrence of a prior audit is not conclusive evidence that relieves the taxpayer of liability in the current audit.

2. The Director shall review the documents submitted by the taxpayer pursuant to subsection 1 and decide whether to recommend a waiver of the tax, interest or penalty, pursuant to NRS NRS 360.294, to the Commission based on the information provided by the taxpayer pursuant to subsection 1.
