Abstract: This revenue procedure provides guidance to persons who are assessed a penalty under section 6707A or 6707 of the Internal Revenue Code, and who may request rescission of those penalties from the Commissioner.

Emergency Justfication: The publication of this revenue procedure sets forth new guidance for persons on whom a penalty under section 6707A or 6707 of the Internal Revenue Code is assessed, and who may request rescission of those penalties from the Commissioner if the violation is with respect to a reportable transaction other than a listed transaction. It is necessary to alert taxpayers as soon as possible to these procedures because section 6707A is effective for returns and statements the due date for which is after October 22, 2004 and, section 6707, as amended, is effective for returns the due date for which is after October 22, 2004; thus, these code sections are already effective and taxpayers need guidance on rescission before the Service may assess the penalty under section 6707A or 6707.
