Iowa Admin. Code r. 351-7.6
If an individual holding a designated position in the executive branch believes that mitigating circumstances prevented the timely filing of Form PFD, the individual may make a written request to the board for waiver of the penalty by filing a Petition for Waiver of Civil Penalty form. The request for waiver must be received by the board within 30 days of notification to the individual of the civil penalty assessment. Waivers may be granted only under exceptional or very unusual circumstances. The board will review the request and issue a waiver or denial of the request. If a waiver is granted, the board will determine how much of the penalty may be waived based on the circumstances.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 68B.32A(5) and 68B.32A(9).
