Short Statement:
File Form 982 to report the exclusion and the reduction of certain tax attributes either dollar for dollar or 33 1/3 cents per dollar under certain circumstances described in section 108. The form was revised to reflect the new exclusion from gross income for discharges of certain indebtedness of a qualified individual because of Midwestern disasters as discribed in P.L. 110-343, Division C, Tax Extenders and Alternative Minimum Tax Relief, Act Section 702(e)(4). Line 10b was added to reflect the reduction of the basis of an individuals principal residence as permitted in the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007 (P.L. 110-142, Act Section 2). The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 extended the exclusion from gross income for the discharge of qualified principal residence indebtedness by an additional 3 years. This exclusion now applies to debt discharged after 2006 and before 2013. The Heartland Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2008 allows qualified individuals to exclude from gross income discharges of certain indebtedness because of Midwestern disasters. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 allows certain businesses to elect to defer and include ratably over five tax years any income from the discharge of business debt arising from the reacquisition of certain types of business debt repurchased in 2009 and 2010. These changes and updates to the law will result in a total burden increase of 320 hours.
