the QRTME paid or incurred by an

paragraph (e)(2) of this section, X
reduces the capitalized amount of
$250,000 by the RTMC of $500,000
claimed by X for 2006, but not below
zero. * * *
Example 2. * * *
(iii) * * * In accordance with
paragraph (e)(2) of this section, Z
reduces the capitalized amount of $1
million by the RTMC of $500,000
claimed by Z for 2006. * * *
*
*
*

(3) Special rules for 2005 returns. If a
taxpayer’s Federal income tax return for
a taxable year beginning after December
31, 2004, and ending before September
7, 2006, is filed before October 10, 2006,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Paperwork Reduction Act
The collection of information
contained in these regulations has been
reviewed and approved by the Office of
Management and Budget in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507(d)) under control
number 1545–1868. The collection of
information in these final regulations is
in § 1.170A–11(b)(2). The information
required in § 1.170A–11(b)(2)
concerning the date on which a
corporation’s board of directors
authorizes a certain type of charitable
contribution assists the IRS in
determining the deductibility of such
contributions. Responses to this
collection of information are mandatory.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless the collection of information
displays a valid control number
assigned by the Office of Management
and Budget.
The estimated annual burden per
respondent is .25 hours.
Comments concerning the accuracy of
this burden estimate and suggestions for
reducing this burden should be sent to
the Internal Revenue Service, Attn: IRS
Reports, Clearance Officer,
SE:W:CAR:MP:T:T:SP, Washington, DC
20224, and to the Office of Management
and Budget, Attn: Desk Officer for the
Department of the Treasury, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Washington, DC 20503.
Books and records relating to a
collection of information must be
retained as long as their contents may
become material in the administration
of any internal revenue law. Generally,
tax returns and tax return information
are confidential, as required by 26
U.S.C. 6103.
Background
This document contains amendments
to 26 CFR part 1 and 26 CFR part 301
designed to eliminate regulatory
impediments to the electronic
submission of tax returns and other
forms filed by corporations,
partnerships, other business entities,
and their owners.
In 1998, Congress enacted the Internal
Revenue Service Restructuring and
Reform Act of 1998 (RRA 1998), Pub. L.
No. 105–206 (112 Stat. 685) (1998). RRA
1998 states a Congressional policy to
promote the paperless filing of Federal
tax returns. Section 2001(a) of RRA 1998
set a goal for the IRS to have at least 80

percent of all Federal tax and
information returns filed electronically
by 2007. Section 2001(b) of RRA 1998
requires the IRS to establish a 10-year
strategic plan to eliminate barriers to
electronic filing.
Finalization of December 2003
Regulations Facilitating Electronic
Filing
On December 19, 2003, the IRS and
Treasury published in the Federal
Register (TD 9100, 2004–1 C.B. 297 [68
FR 70701]) temporary and final
regulations modifying the regulations
under sections 170, 556, 565, 936, 1017,
1368, 1377, 1502, 1503, 6038B and 7701
of the Internal Revenue Code. In the
same issue of the Federal Register, the
IRS and Treasury published a notice of
proposed rulemaking (REG–116664–01,
2004–1 C.B. 319 [68 FR 70747])
proposing to amend regulations under
the code sections noted in the previous
sentence. The temporary, final, and
proposed regulations published on
December 19, 2003, are collectively
referred to as the December 2003
Regulations.
The December 2003 Regulations
generally affect taxpayers who must file
any of the following forms: Form 926,
‘‘Return by a U.S. Transferor of Property
to a Foreign Corporation’’; Form 972,
‘‘Consent of Shareholder To Include
Specific Amount in Gross Income’’;
Form 973, ‘‘Corporation Claim for
Deduction for Consent Dividends’’;
Form 982, ‘‘Reduction of Tax Attributes
Due to Discharge of Indebtedness (and
Section 1082 Basis Adjustment)’’; Form
1120, ‘‘U.S. Corporation Income Tax
Return’’; Form 1120S, ‘‘U.S. Income Tax
Return for an S Corporation’’; Form
1122, ‘‘Authorization and Consent of
Subsidiary Corporation To Be Included
in a Consolidated Income Tax Return’’;
Form 5471, ‘‘Information Return of U.S.
Persons With Respect To Certain
Foreign Corporations’’; Form 5712–A,
‘‘Election and Verification of the Cost
Sharing or Profit Split Method Under
Section 936(h)(5)’’; and Form 8832,
‘‘Entity Classification Election.’’
Prior to the changes adopted by the
December 2003 Regulations, certain
regulations under the code sections
cited above impeded electronic filing of
returns. Some of these regulations, for
example, impeded electronic filing by
requiring taxpayers to include thirdparty signatures on their tax returns or
by requiring taxpayers to attach
documents or statements generated by a
third party. Other regulations required a
taxpayer to sign an IRS form and file it
as an attachment to the taxpayer’s
income tax return. To address certain
situations in which regulations required
