Sec. 3.1. (a) If a determination in a review or appeal authorized under IC 6-1.1-15 results in an overpayment by the taxpayer during the same tax year to which the appeal relates, the taxpayer is entitled to a credit in the amount of the overpayment of tax on the next successive tax installment, if any, due in that tax year. After the credit is given, the county auditor shall:
(1) determine if a further amount is due the taxpayer; and
(2) if a further amount is due the taxpayer, notwithstanding IC 5-11-10-1 and IC 36-2-6-2, without a claim or an appropriation being required, pay the amount due the taxpayer.
The county auditor shall charge the amount refunded to the taxpayer as provided in section 2.1 of this chapter.
(b) If the taxpayer no longer owns the property on which the tax was assessed and paid and is no longer the lawful claimant, the county auditor shall pay the refund to the lawful claimant.
(c) If a credit is not applied or a refund is not paid within ninety (90) days of the final resolution of an appeal, the taxpayer or lawful claimant may seek a refund of the overpayment under section 1.1 of this chapter.
