PENALTY AND INTEREST ON PAST-DUE CONTRIBUTIONS.
A. If contributions are not paid on the date on which they are due and payable as prescribed by the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission, the whole or part thereafter remaining unpaid shall bear interest at the rate of one percent (1%) per month for each month or fraction thereof from and after such date until payment is received by the Commission. The date on which payment of contributions is deemed to have been received may be determined by such rules as the Commission may prescribe.
B. If any employer fails or refuses to file contribution and wage reports required under the provisions of this act within fifteen (15) days after written notice has been mailed to the employer by the Commission or its representative regardless whether or not any wages or taxable wages were paid, there shall accrue a penalty of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) and in addition to such penalty, there shall be a penalty of ten percent (10%) added to the total contributions due, collected and paid. Such penalties shall be in addition to any interest due. The provisions of this subsection shall not apply to employers that are subject to subsection B of Section 3-806 of this title.
