HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS ISSUE

 

These synopses are intended only as aids to the reader in identifying the subject matter covered. They may not be relied upon as authoritative interpretations.

EXEMPT ORGANIZATIONS

REG-102508-16 (page 777)

This document contains proposed regulations that would update information reporting regulations under section 6033 that are generally applicable to organizations exempt from tax under section 501(a) to reflect statutory amendments and certain grants of reporting relief announced through subregulatory guidance that have been made since the current regulations were adopted, particularly with respect to tax-exempt organizations required to file an annual Form 990 or 990-EZ information return.

INCOME TAX

REG-125710-18 (page 785)

These proposed regulations provide guidance under section 382(h) regarding the calculation of built-in gains and losses that are attributable to the period preceding a corporation’s ownership change. Built-in gains and losses affect the amount of losses and deductions that a corporation can claim after an ownership change. The proposed regulations (i) simplify the application of section 382 and provide more certainty to taxpayers in determining built-in gains and losses for section 382(h) purposes, and (ii) ensure that difficult questions regarding the application of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 provisions do not unnecessarily complicate application of section 382(h). In particular, the proposed regulations provide general rules and definitions regarding the calculation of net unrealized built-in gains and loss and identification of items that constitute recognized built-in gain or loss.

REV RUL 2019-22 (page 776)
