he commissioner may reinstate a revoked sales and use tax permit, or issue a new permit to a taxpayer whose permit had been revoked if the taxpayer:
The commissioner will hold the security deposit described in item C for two years.
Each failure to file a return or pay a tax due during the two-year period extends such period for the duration of the taxable period for which the return has not been filed or the tax has not been paid.
The commissioner will pay interest on any money deposited as security. The interest will be calculated from the date of deposit to the date of refund, or date of application to any outstanding tax liability, at a rate specified in Minnesota Statutes, section 270C.405. The security deposit will be refunded to the taxpayer at the end of the two-year period, plus any extensions for violations, unless the taxpayer has any unpaid tax liabilities. The commissioner may apply the security deposit to any unpaid tax liabilities. The commissioner may refund the security deposit to the taxpayer before the end of the two-year holding period (or extended holding period) if the taxpayer's business ceases to operate and the taxpayer is no longer required to file sales and use tax returns and pay sales and use tax.
