(b) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), a petition for redetermination of a determination issued under Revenue and Taxation Code section 30173 (Cigarette and Tobacco Products Tax Law) must be filed within 10 days from the date that the notice of determination was mailed.
(c) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), a petition for redetermination of a determination issued under Revenue and Taxation Code section 41033 (Emergency Telephone Users Surcharge Law) must be filed within 60 days from the date that the notice of determination was mailed.
(d) A determination contained within a notice of determination becomes final if a petition for redetermination is not filed within the applicable time period set forth in subdivision (a), (b), or (c).
(e) A petition for redetermination is premature and not valid if it is filed before a notice of determination or notice of successor liability is issued. However, a premature petition for redetermination may be treated as an administrative protest under regulation 35019.
