Returns; payment of tax; election; rules. (1) The provider or seller is responsible for collecting the tax under ORS 403.200 and shall file a return with the Department of Revenue on or before the last day of the month following the end of each calendar quarter, reporting the amount of tax due during the quarter, with the tax due under ORS 403.200 (1)(a) and (b) stated separately. The department shall prescribe the form of the return required by this section and ORS 403.210. The rules of the department must require that returns be made under penalties for false swearing. (2) When a return of the tax is required under ORS 403.210 or subsection (1) of this section, the provider or seller required to make the return shall remit the tax due to the department at the time fixed for filing the return. (3) A provider or seller described in subsection (1) of this section may elect to pay the tax based on either of the following: (a) The amount of tax actually collected during the quarter; or (b) The net amount of tax billed during the quarter. The net amount billed equals the gross amount of tax billed less adjustments for uncollectible accounts, refunds, incorrect billings and other appropriate adjustments. (4) Once a provider or seller has made an election under subsection (3) of this section, the provider or seller may not change the method of payment and reporting unless the provider or seller first obtains the permission of the department.
