§  682.  Assessment.-- (a) Assessment date.--The amount of tax which a
return shows to be due, or the amount of tax which a return  would  have
shown  to  be  due  but  for  a mathematical or clerical error, shall be
deemed to be assessed on the date of filing of the return (including any
amended return showing an increase of tax). In  the  case  of  a  return
properly  filed  without  computation  of  tax,  the tax computed by the
commissioner shall be deemed to be assessed on the date on which payment
is due. If a notice of deficiency has been mailed,  the  amount  of  the
deficiency  shall  be  deemed  to  be  assessed on the date specified in
subsection (b) of section six hundred eighty-one if no petition  to  the
division  of  tax appeals is filed, or if a petition is filed, then upon
the date when a determination or decision rendered in  the  division  of
tax  appeals establishing the amount of the deficiency becomes final. If
an amended return or  report  filed  pursuant  to  section  six  hundred
fifty-nine  concedes the accuracy of a federal change or correction, any
deficiency in tax under this article resulting therefrom shall be deemed
to be assessed on the date of filing such report or amended return,  and
such  assessment  shall  be  timely  notwithstanding section six hundred
eighty-three. If a notice  of  additional  tax  due,  as  prescribed  in
subsection  (e)  of section six hundred eighty-one, has been mailed, the
amount of the deficiency shall be deemed to  be  assessed  on  the  date
specified in such subsection unless within thirty days after the mailing
of  such  notice  a  report  of  the  federal change or correction or an
amended return, where such return was required by  section  six  hundred
fifty-nine,  is  filed  accompanied  by a statement showing wherein such
federal  determination  and  such  notice  of  additional  tax  due  are
erroneous.  Any  amount paid as a tax or in respect of a tax, other than
amounts withheld at the source or paid as estimated income tax, shall be
deemed  to  be  assessed  upon  the  date   of   receipt   of   payment,
notwithstanding any other provisions.

(b) Other assessment powers.--If the mode or time for the assessment of any tax under this article (including interest, additions to tax and assessable penalties) is not otherwise provided for, the tax commission may establish the same by regulations.

(c) Estimated income tax.--No unpaid amount of estimated tax shall be assessed.

(d) Supplemental assessment.--The tax commission may, at any time within the period prescribed for assessment, make a supplemental assessment, subject to the provisions of section six hundred eighty-one where applicable, whenever it is ascertained that any assessment is imperfect or incomplete in any material respect.

(e) Cross reference.--For assessment in case of jeopardy, see section six hundred ninety-four.
