This document contains a final
regulation that provides guidance to taxpayers for determining
which corporations are included in a controlled group of
corporations. REG-161948-05 contains proposed regulations under
sections 334(b)(1)(B) and 362(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 (Code). The proposed regulations apply to certain
nonrecognition transfers of loss property to corporations that are
subject to Federal income tax. The proposed regulations affect the
corporations receiving the loss property.
The IRS is requesting an
emergency approval for this collection to complete the full
research that will reflect the proposed regulations under sections
334(b)(1)(B) and 362(e)(1) (anti-loss importation provisions)
revised under Final regulations 1.332-6. 1.351-3 and 1.368-3,
published on March 28, 2016. Prior approval for this collection was
under two different expirations dates (Preapproval 05/31/2016 and
Approval 04/30/2016); this request is intended to combine all
related information, to be ultimately renewed for three years once
the emergency request is approved. The IRS will amend this
collection to reflect the updated information pertaining to the
Final regulations, TD 9759.

This document contains proposed
regulations under sections 334(b)(1)(B) and 362(e)(1) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Code). The revised collection of
information in these proposed regulations is in §§1.332-6, 1.351-3,
and 1.368-3. By requiring that taxpayers separately report the fair
market value and basis of property (including stock) described in
section 362(e)(1)(B) and in 362(e)(2)(A) that is transferred in a
tax-free transaction, this revised collection of information aides
in identifying transactions within the scope of sections
334(b)(1)(B), 362(e)(1), and 362(e)(2) and thereby facilitates the
IRS' verification that taxpayers are complying with sections
334(b)(1)(B), 362(e)(1), and 362(e)(2). The net result of these
changes will result in a decrease in the estimated annual responses
by 125,000, while increasing the estimate burden hours by 112,500
hours.
