Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 219 / Wednesday, November 15, 2023 / Notices
Revenue Code (IRC), which provides a
credit based on costs incurred by an
employer in establishing or
administering an eligible employer plan
or for the retirement-related education
of employees with respect to the plan.
Form 8881 also implements IRC
section 45T, which provides a credit for
including an eligible automatic
contribution arrangement (as defined in
section 414(w)(3)) in a qualified
employer plan sponsored by the
employer. For an eligible employer, the
section 45E credit is 50% of the
qualified start-up costs for a tax year, up
to $500 for the tax year in which the
plan is established or becomes effective
and each of the two subsequent tax
years. For an eligible employer, the
section 45T credit is $500 for the first
tax year in which the automatic
contribution arrangement is included in
the plan and for each of the two
subsequent tax years.
Current Actions: The Secure 2.0 Act
of 2022 added new IRC section 45AA,
Military Spouse Retirement Plan
Eligibility Credit for Small Employers.
Section 45AA provides a general
business tax credit to eligible small
employers who offer defined
contribution plans with specific features
that benefit military spouses. The
section 45AA credit is, for a tax year
during which a military spouse
participates in the plan, up to 3 tax
years beginning with the tax year during
which the military spouse began
participating in the plan, $200, plus the
amount of employer contributions
(other than elective deferrals) made on
behalf of the military spouse for any of
the 3 tax years, up to $300 for a tax year.
The Form 8881 is being revised to add
the Section 45AA credit. Additionally,
the Secure 2.0 Act amended section 45E
to permit eligible employers, with 1–50
employees, an increased start-up costs
credit of 100% of the qualified start-up
costs for a tax year, up to $500 for the
tax year in which the plan is established
or becomes effective and each of the two
subsequent tax years. The Secure 2.0
Act also amended section 45E to permit
an additional credit for employer
contributions by certain eligible
employers, in an amount equal to an
applicable percentage of eligible
employer contributions to a defined
contribution plan, for up to 5 tax years
beginning with the tax year in which the
plan is established. The Form 8881 is
being revised to include these additions
under section 45E.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit organizations.
