DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Internal Revenue Service 26 CFR Part 301 [TD 8911] RIN 1545-AV92
TITLE: Relief for Service in Combat Zone and for Presidentially
Declared Disaster
AGENCY: Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Treasury.
ACTION: Final regulations.
SUMMARY: This document contains final regulations relating to the
postponement of certain tax-related deadlines due either to service
in a combat zone or a Presidentially declared disaster. The
regulations reflect changes to the law made by the Taxpayer Relief
Act of 1997. The regulations affect taxpayers serving in a combat
zone and taxpayers affected by a Presidentially declared disaster.
DATES: Effective Date: These regulations are effective December 30,
1999. Applicability Date: For dates of applicability, see
§§301.7508- 1(b) and 301.7508A-1(h).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bridget E. Finkenaur, (202)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background This document contains amendments to the Regulations on
Procedure and Administration (26 CFR part 301) under section 7508 of
the Internal Revenue Code (Code), relating to postponement of
certain acts by reason of service in a combat zone, and section
7508A, relating to postponement of certain tax-related deadlines by
reason of a Presidentially declared disaster. Section 7508A was
added to the Code by section 911 of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997,
Public Law 105-34 (111 Stat. 788), effective for any period for
performing an act that has not expired before August 5, 1997.
A notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-101492-98) was published in the
Federal Register (64 FR 73444) on December 30, 1999. No public
hearing was requested or held. One comment letter was received.
After consideration of the comments, the proposed regulations are
adopted as modified by this Treasury decision. The comments are
discussed below. Summary of Comments
1. IRA and Pension Contribution Deadlines
Section 301.7508A-1(c)(1) of the proposed regulations lists various
tax-related deadlines that may be postponed. The commentator
recommends that deadlines for contributions to an individual
retirement account (IRA) or a pension plan be added to the list. The
final regulations adopt this recommendation and also add the
deadline for rollover contributions.
2. Notification of IRS When Taxpayer Moves Out of Disaster Area. The
commentator suggests that the IRS develop a simple procedure for
taxpayers to notify the IRS when they move out of a Presidentially
declared disaster area. The commentator believes that the
notification would ensure that relief under section 7508A will
automatically apply to a taxpayer who has moved out of a
Presidentially declared disaster area. Such taxpayers could also be
advised of any further relevant filing guidance regarding the
disaster.
The final regulations do not adopt this suggestion because it is not
necessary for taxpayers moving out of a disaster area to notify the
IRS to obtain relief under section 7508A. When a Presidentially
declared disaster occurs, the IRS makes a decision whether to grant
relief to taxpayers affected by the disaster. If a decision is made
to grant relief, the IRS identifies most affected taxpayers located
in the disaster area and places a marker on the affected tax
accounts. A subsequent change of address will not remove the marker
from the tax account. Thus, an affected taxpayer who relocates
outside a disaster area will still automatically receive disaster
relief.
Because the IRS may not be able to identify all taxpayers
potentially affected by a Presidentially declared disaster, some
taxpayers may have to identify themselves to the IRS to receive
relief. To ensure that they receive the relief for which they are
eligible, the IRS typically issues public guidance, such as a. news
release, that describes how to claim relief. The guidance instructs
taxpayers how to note on their tax return that they are affected
taxpayers, and what, if any, additional information should be
attached. When the IRS processes these tax returns, it manually
places the disaster relief marker on the tax account. Subsequent
changes of address will not affect the grant of relief.
3. Definition of Affected Taxpayer
The regulations list seven types of affected taxpayers, including
"any business whose principal place of business is located in a
covered disaster area." The commentator recommends that this
definition be expanded to include all owners of a business.
The final regulations do not adopt this recommendation. The IRS and
Treasury Department believe that the definition of affected taxpayer
in the proposed regulations is sufficiently broad to cover all
taxpayers within the intended scope of section 7508A. Although the
final regulations do not provide a specific rule for business owners
(other than sole proprietors), the IRS may nonetheless make a
determination based on the facts and circumstances in a particular
case that a business owner is an affected taxpayer under either
§301.7508A-1(d)(1)(iv), which applies to an individual whose
principal residence is not located in a disaster area, but whose
records necessary to meet the deadline for a specified act are
maintained in a covered disaster. area, or under
§301.7508A-1(d)(1)(vii), which applies to any other person
determined by the IRS to be affected by a Presidentially declared
disaster. For example, in the case of a partnership, it is expected
that partners whose ability to meet a deadline is significantly
affected by a Presidentially declared disaster will be granted
relief.
4. Deadline for Tax Deposits
The commentator also recommends that the deadline for tax deposits
under section 6302 be added to the list. The commentator states that
no distinction should be drawn between tax payments and tax deposits
and that allowing a postponement of deposits would be less
cumbersome than waiving the section 6656 deposit penalties for
reasonable cause. To the contrary, due to the frequency with which
tax deposits are due, the IRS believes it would be more
administratively cumbersome to defer those deadlines. However, in
cases where taxpayers are unable to make timely tax deposits under
section 6302 because of a Presidentially declared disaster, the IRS
will consider a reasonable cause waiver of the section 6656 failure
to deposit penalty on a case by case basis. The IRS believes such a
system is more administrable. Thus, this comment has not been
adopted by the final regulations.
Explanation of Other Revisions
Section 301.7508A-1(c)(1) of the final regulations expands the acts
for which disaster relief is available to include: the filing of
generation-skipping transfer tax returns; the payment of generation-
skipping transfer tax; and the filing of any petition with the Tax
Court.
Sections 301.7508A-1(d)(1)(ii) and (iv) of the final regulations
have been revised to clarify that affected taxpayer includes any
business entity or sole proprietor whose principal place of business
is located in a covered disaster area. Example 5 of the final
regulations clarifies the application of section 7508A to the
lookback period in section 6511(b)(2)(A). This period limits the
amount that may be refunded to the taxpayer when a timely claim is
filed under section 6511(a). In Example 5, H and W timely file their
2001 income tax return on April 15, 2002. Example 5 states that an
amended return for 2001 will be timely if it is filed on or before
July 14, 2005. As clarified by the final regulations, Example 5
further states that the section 6511(b)(2)(A) lookback period runs
from July 14, 2005, back to April 15, 2002. Thus, the taxpayers are
allowed a refund of estimated tax and tax withheld from wages for
2001, deemed paid on April 15, 2002, under section 6513(b).
The final regulations also clarify Examples 6 and 7. Under
§301.7508A-1(f) of the final regulations, if there is an
extension of time to file income tax returns under section 6081 and
to pay income tax with respect to such returns under section. 6161,
and a postponement of tax-related deadlines under section 7508A,
interest on an underpayment that arises during such period is abated
under section 6404(h) for the period of time disregarded under
section 7508A. This is illustrated by Example
8. By contrast, in Examples 6 and 7, extensions were not granted
under sections 6081 and 6161 and interest was not abated under
section 6404(h). Therefore, in Examples 6 and 7, no interest
abatement would be permitted regardless of whether the underpayment
arose before or during the extension period. Therefore, Examples 6
and 7 are amended by removing the statement that interest is not
abated "because the underpayment arose prior to the extension
period" and clarifying that because no extensions under sections
6081 and 6161 were granted, interest was not abated under section
6404(h).
Special Analyses
It has been determined that these final regulations are not a
significant regulatory action as defined in Executive Order 12866.
Therefore, a regulatory assessment is not required. It also has been
determined that section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act
(5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does not apply to these regulations, and
because these regulations do not impose a collection of information
on small entities, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter
6) does not apply. Pursuant to section 7805(f) of the Code, the
notice of proposed rulemaking. preceding these final regulations was
submitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration for comment on their impact on small business.

interest on an underpayment of income tax that arises during such
period will be abated under section 6404(h) for the period of time
disregarded under section 7508A in addition to the period of time
covered by the extension of time to file and the extension of time
to pay.
(g) Examples. The rules of this section are illustrated by the
following examples:
Example 1.
(i) Corporation M, a calendar year taxpayer, has its principal place
of business in County A in State X. Pursuant to a timely filed
request for extension of time to file, Corporation M= s 1999 Form
1120, A U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return,@ is due on September 15,
2000. Also due on September 15, 2000, is Corporation M= s third
quarter estimated tax payment for 2000. Corporation M= s 2000 third
quarter Form 720, A Quarterly Federal Excise Tax Return,@ and third
quarter Form 941, "Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return,@ are due
on October 31, 2000. In addition, Corporation M has an employment
tax deposit due on September 15, 2000.
(ii) On September 1, 2000, a hurricane strikes County A. On
September 6, 2000, the President declares a disaster within the
meaning of section 1033(h)(3). The IRS determines that County A in
State X is a covered disaster area and publishes guidance informing
taxpayers that for acts described in paragraph (c) of this section
that are required to be performed within the period beginning on
September 1, 2000, and ending on November 6, 2000, 90 days will be
disregarded in determining whether the acts are performed timely.
(iii) Because Corporation M= s principal place of business is in
County A, Corporation M is an affected taxpayer. Accordingly,
Corporation M= s 1999 Form 1120 will be filed timely if filed on or
before December 14, 2000. Corporation M= s 2000 third quarter
estimated tax payment will be made timely if paid on or before
December 14, 2000. In addition, because excise and employment tax
returns are described in paragraph (c) of this section, Corporation
M= s 2000 third quarter Form 720 and third quarter Form 941 will be
filed timely if filed on or before January 29, 2001. However,
because deposits of taxes are excluded from the scope of. paragraph
(c) of this section, Corporation M= s employment tax deposit is due
on September 15, 2000. In addition, Corporation M's deposits
relating to the third quarter Form 720 are due without extension.
Example 2. The facts are the same as in Example 1, except that
during 2000, Corporation M= s 1996 Form 1120 is being examined by
the IRS. Pursuant to a timely filed request for extension of time to
file, Corporation M timely filed its 1996 Form 1120 on September 15,
1997. Without application of this section, the statute of
limitations on assessment for 1996 income tax will expire on
September 15, 2000. However, pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
section, assessment of tax is one of the government acts for which
up to 90 days may be disregarded. The IRS determines that an
extension of the statute of limitations is necessary and appropriate
under these circumstances. Because the September 15, 2000,
expiration date of the statute of limitations on assessment falls
within the period of the disaster as described in the IRS= s
published guidance, the 90 day period disregarded under paragraph
(b) of this section begins on September 16, 2000, and ends on
December 14, 2000. Accordingly, the statute of limitations on
assessment for Corporation M= s 1996 income tax will expire on
December 14, 2000.
Example 3. The facts are the same as in Example 2, except that the
examination of the 1996 taxable year was completed earlier in 2000,
and on July 28, 2000, the IRS mailed a statutory notice of
deficiency to Corporation M. Without application of this section,
Corporation M has 90 days (or until October 26, 2000) to file a
petition with the Tax Court. However, pursuant to paragraph (c) of
this section, filing a petition with the Tax Court is one of the
taxpayer acts for which up to 90 days may be disregarded. Because
Corporation M is an affected taxpayer, Corporation M= s petition to
the Tax Court will be filed timely if filed on or before January 24,
2001.
Example 4.
(i) H and W, individual calendar year taxpayers, intend to file a
joint Form 1040, @ U.S. Individual Income Tax Return,@ for the 2001
taxable year and are required to file a Schedule H, A Household
Employment Taxes.@ The joint return is due on April 15, 2002. H and
W fully and timely paid all taxes for the 2001 taxable year,
including domestic service employment taxes, through withholding and
estimated tax payments. H's and W= s principal residence is in
County B in State Y.
(ii) On April 2, 2002, a severe ice storm strikes County B. On April
5, 2002, the President declares a disaster within the meaning of
section 1033(h)(3). The IRS determines that County B. in State Y is
a covered disaster area and publishes guidance informing taxpayers
that for acts described in paragraph (c) of this section that are
required to be performed within the period beginning on April 2,
2002, and ending on April 19, 2002, 90 days will be disregarded in
determining whether the acts are performed timely.
(iii) Because H's and W= s principal residence is in County B, H and
W are affected taxpayers. Because April 15, 2002, the due date of
H's and W= s 2001 Form 1040 and Schedule H, falls within the period
of the disaster as described in the IRS published guidance, the 90
day period disregarded under paragraph (b) of this section begins on
April 16, 2002, and ends on July 14, 2002, a Sunday. Pursuant to
section 7503, if the last day for performing an act falls on
Saturday, Sunday, or a legal holiday, the performance of the act
shall be considered timely if it is performed on the next succeeding
day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. Accordingly,
H's and W= s 2001 Form 1040 and Schedule H will be filed timely if
filed on or before July 15, 2002.
Example 5.
(i) H and W, residents of County C in State Z, want to file an
amended return to request a refund of 2001 taxes. H and W timely
filed their 2001 income tax return on April 15, 2002. Without
application of section 7508A, under section 6511(a), H's and W= s
amended 2001 tax return must be filed on or before April 15, 2005.
(ii) On April 1, 2005, an earthquake strikes County C. On April 5,
2005, the President declares a disaster within the meaning of
section 1033(h)(3). The IRS determines that County C in State Z is a
covered disaster area and publishes guidance informing taxpayers
that for acts described in paragraph (c) of this section that are
required to be performed within the period beginning on April 1,
2005, and ending on April 19, 2005, 90 days will be disregarded in
determining whether the acts are performed timely.
(iii) Under paragraph (c) of this section, filing a claim for refund
of tax is one of the taxpayer acts for which up to 90 days may be
disregarded. Ninety days are disregarded under paragraph (b)(1) of
this section beginning on April 16, 2005, and ending on July 14,
2005. Accordingly, H's and W= s claim for refund for 2001 taxes will
be timely if filed on or before July 14, 2005. Moreover, in applying
the lookback period in section 6511(b)(2)(A), which limits the
amount of the allowable refund, the period from July 14, 2005, back
to April 16, 2005, is disregarded under paragraph (b)(2) of this
section. Thus, if the. claim is filed on or before July 14, 2005,
amounts deemed paid on April 15, 2002, under section 6513(b), such
as estimated tax and tax withheld from wages, will have been paid
within the lookback period of section 6511(b)(2)(A).
Example 6.
(i) L is an unmarried, calendar year taxpayer whose principal
residence is located in County R in State T. L does not timely file
a 2001 Form 1040, A U.S. Individual Income Tax Return,@ which is due
on April 15, 2002, and does not timely pay tax owed on that return.
Absent reasonable cause, L is subject to the failure to file and
failure to pay penalties under section 6651 beginning on April 16,
2002.
(ii) On May 10, 2002, a tornado strikes County R. On May 14, 2002,
the President declares a disaster within the meaning of section
1033(h)(3). The IRS determines that County R in State T is a covered
disaster area and publishes guidance informing taxpayers that for
acts described in paragraph (c) of this section that are required to
be performed within the period beginning on May 10, 2002, and ending
on June 27, 2002, 90 days will be disregarded in determining whether
the acts are timely.
(iii) On May 31, 2002, L files a 2001 Form 1040, A U.S. Individual
Income Tax Return,@ and pays the tax owed for 2001.
(iv) Because L= s principal residence is in County R, L is an
affected taxpayer. For purposes of penalties under section 6651, 90
days are disregarded under paragraph (b) of this section beginning
on May 10, 2002. Because L files the return on May 31, 2002, the
penalties under section 6651 will run from April 16, 2002, until May
10, 2002. Because there is no extension of time to file returns
under section 6081 and no extension of time to pay under section
6161, interest is not abated under section 6404(h), and L is liable
for the underpayment interest for the entire period of April 16,
2002, through May 31, 2002.
Example 7. The facts are the same as in Example 6, except L does not
file the 2001 Form 1040 until November 25, 2002. Ninety days are
disregarded under paragraph (b) of this section beginning on May 10,
2002, and ending on August 8, 2002. Therefore, the section 6651
penalties will run from April 16, 2002, until May 10, 2002, and from
August 9, 2002, until November 25, 2002. Because there is no
extension of time to file returns under section 6081 and no
extension of time to pay under section 6161, interest is not abated
under section 6404(h), and L will remain liable for underpayment
interest for the entire period of April 16, 2002, through November
25, 2002. Example 8.
(i) H and W, individual calendar year taxpayers, intend to file a
joint Form 1040, A U.S. Individual Income Tax Return,@ for the 2001
taxable year. The joint return is due on April 15, 2002. After
credits for withholding under section 31 and estimated tax payments,
H and W owe tax for the 2001 taxable year. H's and W= s principal
residence is in County D in State Q.
(ii) On March 1, 2002, severe flooding strikes County D. On March 5,
2002, the President declares a disaster within the meaning of
section 1033(h)(3). The IRS determines that County D in State Q is a
covered disaster area and publishes guidance informing taxpayers
that for acts described in paragraph (c) of this section that are
required to be performed within the period beginning on March 1,
2002, and ending on April 25, 2002, 90 days will be disregarded in
determining whether the acts are performed timely. The guidance also
grants affected taxpayers an additional 6-month extension of time to
file returns under section 6081 and an additional 6-month extension
of time to pay under section 6161. (iii) Because H's and W= s
