Nebraska Revised Statutes Chapter 77. Revenue and Taxation § 77-6305. Individual, trust, or pass-through entity; certification; application; form; director; duties; qualification; eligibility for tax credits

(1) An individual, trust, or pass-through entity may apply to the director for certification as a qualified investor for a calendar year. The application shall be in the form and be made under the procedures specified by the director. The director shall not certify the following types of individuals, trusts, or pass-through entities as qualified investors:

(2) Within thirty days after receiving an application for certification under this section, the director shall certify the individual, trust, or pass-through entity as satisfying the conditions required of a qualified investor, request additional information, or deny the application. If the director requests additional information, the director shall certify the individual, trust, or pass-through entity or deny the application within thirty days after receiving the additional information. If the director neither certifies the individual, trust, or pass-through entity nor denies the application within thirty days after receiving the original application or within thirty days after receiving the additional information requested, whichever is later, then the application is deemed approved if the individual, trust, or pass-through entity meets the qualifications in subsection (1) of this section. An individual, trust, or pass-through entity which applies for certification and is denied may reapply.

(3) In order for a qualified investment in a qualified small business to be eligible for tax credits, a qualified investor who makes the qualified investment shall have applied for and received certification for the calendar year in which the qualified investment was made prior to making the qualified investment.
