Abstract:
The Internal Revenue Service is notifying taxpayers how to make the election out of the former bond requirement of § 42(j)(6) mandated by the Housing Assistance Tax Act of 2008.
Emergency Justfication:
The repeal of the surety bond and TDA requirements is effective July 30, 2008, the date of enactment of the election under section 3004(i)(2)(B)(ii) of the Housing Assistance Tax Act of 2008. The election is designed to relieve taxpayers of the financial burden of paying premiums for surety bonds or establishing TDAs. With the credit crisis in the financial markets, surety bond premiums are rapidly rising which is causing a severe financial burden for taxpayers, particularly financial institutions. Some taxpayers surety bonds are being terminated due to their heighten credit risk and those taxpayers will be subject to recapture tax unless the can furnish a superseding surety bond to the IRS. Emergency approval of the revenue procedure is requested so that taxpayers are relieved of the financial burden of paying unneeded surety bond premiums. For taxpayers that established TDAs, the revenue procedure will allow taxpayers access to Treasury securities which are currently pledged to the Service and unavailable to the taxpayers.
