Form 8038-CP, Return for Credit
Payments to Issuers of Qualified Bonds, will be used to make direct
payments to State and local governments. The American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009, P.L. 111-5, provides State and local
governments with the option of issuing a tax credit bond instead of
a tax-exempt governmental obligation bond. The bill gives State and
local governments the option to receive a direct payment from the
Federal government equal to a subsidy that would have been received
through the Federal tax credit for bonds.
The collection of
information is needed quicker than the normal review process in
order to allow State and local governments to receive a direct
payment from the Federal government that would have otherwise been
delivered through the Federal tax credit for bonds. The American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 requires the credit become
available after the date of enactment, February 17, 2009.
