A proceeding for the collection of these amounts may not be begun after the expiration of this period. In case of a false or fraudulent return with intent to evade contributions, or in the event of a failure to file a return, the contributions may be assessed, or a proceeding in court for the collection of the contributions may be begun, at any time.

(b) The department may charge off as uncollectible and no longer an asset of the unemployment compensation fund a delinquent contribution after five years from the date of delinquency, if the department is satisfied that there are no available means by which the contribution may be collected.
