If the credit is transferable, the report shall state whether the credit will or may be transferred to another taxpayer and the names of the taxpayers to whom the credit is transferred. The report shall also provide whether the credit will or may be allocated by a pass-through entity to one or more of the shareholders, partners or members of the pass-through entity and the identity of the shareholders, partners or members of the pass-through entity to whom the credit was allocated. Further, the report shall include the tax type, the amount of the credit, the statutory or other legal authority which forms the basis for the credit, and other information that may be required by the Tax Commission or the Insurance Department. The report to the Tax Commission or to the Insurance Department shall be on such form as the Commission or Department may prescribe.

Not later than five (5) working days after the report has been provided to the Governor, the Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives and the President Pro Tempore of the State Senate, the Oklahoma Tax Commission shall publish the report on its website.
