§ 5867. Form and verification of returns
The returns required to be filed under this chapter shall be in such form and manner as the commissioner prescribes in order to assure payment of the taxes imposed by this chapter and shall be filed at the main office of the department of taxes. Those returns shall be verified by written declarations that the statements therein are made subject to the pains and penalties of perjury. When a return is made by a corporation, the person signing it shall be considered to be the person who is subject to the pains and penalties of perjury. The commissioner shall cause to be prepared blank forms for the returns and shall cause them to be distributed throughout the state and to be furnished upon application, but failure to secure or receive such a form shall not relieve a taxpayer from the obligation of filing any return herein required.
