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.
US Code:
26 USC 42(j)(6)
Name of Law: No recapture on disposition of building (or interest therein) where bond posted
PL: Pub.L. 110 - 289 3004(i)(2)(B)(ii) Name of Law: Housing Assistance Tax Act of 2008
These revenue procedures provides the manner under § 42(j)(6)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) 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. It also provides guidance on how a taxpayer may notify the Internal Revenue Service of any increase in tax resulting from a reduction in the qualified basis of a low-income housing tax credit building in order to begin the 3-year statutory period for assessing a deficiency with respect to that taxpayer.
To make the notification prescribed by § 42(j)(6)(B)(i) of the Code a taxpayer that disposed of a low-income building (or interest therein) must submit a letter to the Internal Revenue Service. We estimate a total annual reporting burden is 10 hours. The estimated annual burden per respondent is 1 hour, depending on the individual circumstances.
