significant regulatory action as defined
in Executive Order 12866. Therefore, a
regulatory assessment is not required. It
has also been determined that section
553(b) of the Administrative Procedure
Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does not apply
to these regulations, and because the
regulations do not impose a collection
of information on small entities, the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C.
chapter 6) does not apply. Pursuant to
section 7805(f) of the Code, these
regulations have been submitted to the
Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small
Business Administration for comment
on its impact on small business.
Comments and Requests for Public
Hearing
Before these proposed regulations are
adopted as final regulations,
consideration will be given to any
electronic or written comments (a
signed original and eight (8) copies) that
are submitted timely to the IRS. The
Treasury Department and the IRS
request comments on all aspects of the
proposed rules. All comments will be
available for public inspection and
copying. A public hearing will be
scheduled if requested in writing by any
person that timely submits comments. If
a public hearing is scheduled, notice of
the date, time, and place for the public
hearing will be published in the Federal
Register.
Drafting Information
The principal author of these
regulations is Jeffrey L. Parry of the
Office of Chief Counsel (International).

Par. 2. Section 1.904–4 is amended by
adding paragraph (c)(2)(iii) and by

paragraph (n) to read as follows:

(c) * * *
(2) * * *
(iii) Coordination with section 904(b),
(f) and (g). The determination of
whether foreign-source passive income
is high-taxed is made before taking into
account any adjustments under section
904(b) or any allocation or recapture of
a separate limitation loss, overall foreign
loss or overall domestic loss under
section 904(f) and (g).
*
*
*
*
*
(n) * * * Paragraph (c)(2)(iii) of this
section applies to taxable years ending
on or after the date of publication of a
Treasury decision adopting these rules
as final regulations in the Federal
Register.
Par. 3. Section 1.904(g)–3 is amended
by revising paragraph (f), adding
paragraph (i) and adding a sentence at
the end of paragraph (k) to read as
follows:
§ 1.904(g)–3 Ordering rules for the
allocation of net operating losses, net
capital losses, U.S. source losses, and
separate limitation losses, and for the
recapture of separate limitation losses,
overall foreign losses, and overall domestic
losses.
*
*
*
*
*
(f) Step Five: Recapture of overall
foreign loss accounts. If the taxpayer’s
separate limitation income for the
taxable year (reduced by any losses
carried over under paragraph (b) of this
section) exceeds the sum of the
taxpayer’s U.S. source loss and separate
limitation losses for the year, so that the
taxpayer has separate limitation income
remaining after the application of
paragraphs (d)(1) and (e) of this section,
then the taxpayer shall recapture prior
year overall foreign losses, if any, in
accordance with § 1.904(f)–2, and
reduce overall foreign loss accounts in
accordance with § 1.904(f)–2. Such
recapture shall include amounts
determined under § 1.904(f)–2(c) and
(d)(3) but not § 1.904(f)–2(d)(4).
*
*
*
*
*
(i) Step Eight: Dispositions under
section 904(f)(3) in which gain would
not otherwise be recognized. The
taxpayer shall determine the amount of
gain that would otherwise not be
recognized but that must be recognized
in accordance with § 1.904(f)–2(d)(4)
(not exceeding the taxpayer’s applicable
overall foreign loss account) and then
apply § 1.904(f)–2(a) and (b) to recapture
overall foreign loss accounts in an
amount equal to the gain recognized. To
the extent this recognition of gain in a
taxable year increases the amount of a
net operating loss carryover to that
taxable year, paragraphs (b) through (e)
of this section shall be applied to
