The board may decrease or increase the amount of the determination before it becomes final, but the amount may be increased only if a claim for the increase is asserted by the board at or before the hearing. Unless the penalty imposed by Section 41074 or Section 41080 applies to the amount of the determination as originally made or as increased, the claim for increase shall be asserted within eight years after the last day of the second calendar month following the month for which the increase is asserted.
