Section 330-210-0040 - Fees
Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024
The department adopts the following schedule of fees as provided by ORS 469B.294 for applicants. All fee payments are non-refundable, despite the results of the department's review.
(1) Applicants, except those applying through the small premium project process, must submit an application fee of $500 with their preliminary certification application.
(2) Applicants applying through the small premium project process must submit a fee of $75 with their informational filing.
(3) Applicants selected for technical review will be required to pay an additional technical review fee prior to that review. The fee amount is equal to the qualifying cost multiplied by 0.9 percent. Small premium projects are not subject to the technical review fee.
(4) Applicants requesting amendments to preliminary certifications must submit a fee of $300 with their amendment request.
(5) Applicants for final certification must submit with their application a final review fee. This fee amount is equal to the qualifying cost multiplied by 0.55 percent. All applicants seeking final certification for a project, including small premium projects, are required to apply for final review and pay the final review fee.
(6) Applicants that transfer their tax credit to a pass-through partner must pay a pass-through fee. The fee is due after a pass-through partner has been identified and before the department will issue a tax credit certificate.
(7) Applicants issued a tax credit certificate that choose to have their tax credit re-issued to a transferee must pay a transfer fee. The fee for small premium project applicants is $200 plus $100 per each additional tax credit certificate issued and the fee for all other applicants is $200 plus $100 per tax credit certificate issued. The additional fee of $100 per certificate issued does not apply to the first certificate for small premium project applicants.
(8) Applicants subject to recertification must submit a fee of $750 with each application for recertification.
(9) If an applicant fails to pay fees timely as required by this rule, the department may reject the pending application and discontinue the review.
