(a) A taxpayer participating in the EFT program shall utilize the ACH debit method unless the department permits the taxpayer to utilize another EFT method.

(b) A taxpayer desiring to use the ACH credit method or any other EFT method shall apply to the department for permission to do so, and the department may grant permission for good cause shown.

(d) The Department may require a taxpayer to use the ACH debit method, and may revoke any permission given to that taxpayer to use any other EFT method, if the taxpayer:

(1) Does not consistently transmit error-free payments;

(2) Substantially varies from the requirements and specifications of these rules;

(3) Repeatedly fails to make timely EFT payments or timely provide payment information; or

(4) Repeatedly fails to provide the required addenda record with the EFT payment.
