New Jersey Statutes Title 54. Taxation 54 § 30A-120

a. Upon making the computation of the assessments under this act, the Director of the Division of Taxation shall certify the amount of such assessments. If for any reason the making and delivering of a certificate of assessments shall be delayed until after May 15, 1999 and after May 15 in any year thereafter, then all of the assessments for such year affected by such certificate of assessment shall become due and payable 10 days after the date of such certification of assessment. The administration, collection, and enforcement of the assessments payable by each remitter under this act shall be subject to the provisions of the State Tax Uniform Procedure Law, R.S.54:48-1 et seq., to the extent that the provisions of that law are not inconsistent with the provisions of this act.

b. The director may, by regulation, require that any payment of assessment made on or before the date established therefor pursuant to this act shall be by electronic funds transfer to such depositories as the State Treasurer shall designate pursuant to section 1 of P.L.1956, c. 174 (C.52:18-16.1). A payment by electronic funds transfer shall be deemed to be made on the date the payment is received by the designated depository. The manner, form, and content of the electronic funds transfer message, the circumstances under which an electronic funds transfer shall serve as a substitute for the filing of another form of return, the means by which taxpayers will be provided with acknowledgments of payments, and the classes of taxpayers subject to the electronic funds transfer requirement shall be as prescribed by the director.

c. For the purposes of this section “electronic funds transfer” means any transfer of funds, other than a transaction originated by check, draft, or similar paper instrument, that is initiated through an electronic terminal, telecommunication device, or computer for the purpose of ordering, instructing or authorizing a financial institution to debit or credit an account.
