(b) The Commissioner may treat any refund payment owed by the Commissioner to a taxpayer as if it were a payment received from the taxpayer and may apply the payment in accordance with subsection (a) of this section.
(c) The provisions of this section shall apply notwithstanding any appeal by the taxpayer. (Added 1985, No. 263 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. June 4, 1986.)
