Introduction

The Internal Revenue Bulletin is the authoritative instrument

of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for announcing official rulings and procedures of the Internal Revenue Service

and for publishing Treasury Decisions, Executive Orders, Tax

Conventions, legislation, court decisions, and other items of

general interest. It is published weekly.

It is the policy of the Service to publish in the Bulletin all substantive rulings necessary to promote a uniform application

of the tax laws, including all rulings that supersede, revoke,

modify, or amend any of those previously published in the

Bulletin. All published rulings apply retroactively unless otherwise indicated. Procedures relating solely to matters of internal management are not published; however, statements of

internal practices and procedures that affect the rights and

duties of taxpayers are published.

Revenue rulings represent the conclusions of the Service

on the application of the law to the pivotal facts stated in

the revenue ruling. In those based on positions taken in rulings to taxpayers or technical advice to Service field offices,

identifying details and information of a confidential nature are

deleted to prevent unwarranted invasions of privacy and to

comply with statutory requirements.

Rulings and procedures reported in the Bulletin do not have the

force and effect of Treasury Department Regulations, but they

may be used as precedents. Unpublished rulings will not be

relied on, used, or cited as precedents by Service personnel in

the disposition of other cases. In applying published rulings and

procedures, the effect of subsequent legislation, regulations,

court decisions, rulings, and procedures must be considered,

and Service personnel and others concerned are cautioned

against reaching the same conclusions in other cases unless

the facts and circumstances are substantially the same.

The Bulletin is divided into four parts as follows:

Part I.—1986 Code.

This part includes rulings and decisions based on provisions

of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

Part II.—Treaties and Tax Legislation.

This part is divided into two subparts as follows: Subpart A,

Tax Conventions and Other Related Items, and Subpart B,

Legislation and Related Committee Reports.

Part III.—Administrative, Procedural, and Miscellaneous.

To the extent practicable, pertinent cross references to these

subjects are contained in the other Parts and Subparts. Also

included in this part are Bank Secrecy Act Administrative

Rulings. Bank Secrecy Act Administrative Rulings are issued

by the Department of the Treasury’s Office of the Assistant

Secretary (Enforcement).

Part IV.—Items of General Interest.

This part includes notices of proposed rulemakings, disbarment and suspension lists, and announcements.

The last Bulletin for each month includes a cumulative index

for the matters published during the preceding months. These

monthly indexes are cumulated on a semiannual basis, and are

published in the last Bulletin of each semiannual period.

The contents of this publication are not copyrighted and may be reprinted freely. A citation of the Internal Revenue Bulletin as the source would be appropriate.

Update for Weighted

Average Interest Rates,

Yield Curves, and Segment

Rates

Notice 2022-35

This notice provides guidance on the

corporate bond monthly yield curve, the

corresponding spot segment rates used

under § 417(e)(3), and the 24-month

average segment rates under § 430(h)

(2) of the Internal Revenue Code. In

addition, this notice provides guidance as to the interest rate on 30-year

Treasury securities under § 417(e)(3)

(A)(ii)(II) as in effect for plan years

beginning before 2008 and the 30-year

Treasury weighted average rate under

§ 431(c)(6)(E)(ii)(I).

YIELD CURVE AND SEGMENT

RATES

Section 430 specifies the minimum

funding requirements that apply to

Applicable Month

August 2022

single-employer plans (except for CSEC

plans under § 414(y)) pursuant to § 412.

Section 430(h)(2) specifies the interest rates that must be used to determine

a plan’s target normal cost and funding

target. Under this provision, present

value is generally determined using three

24-month average interest rates (“segment rates”), each of which applies to

cash flows during specified periods. To

the extent provided under § 430(h)(2)(C)

(iv), these segment rates are adjusted by

the applicable percentage of the 25-year

average segment rates for the period ending September 30 of the year preceding

the calendar year in which the plan year

begins.1 However, an election may be

made under § 430(h)(2)(D)(ii) to use the

monthly yield curve in place of the segment rates.

Notice 2007-81, 2007-44 I.R.B. 899,

provides guidelines for determining the

monthly corporate bond yield curve, and

the 24-month average corporate bond

segment rates used to compute the target

normal cost and the funding target. Consistent with the methodology specified in

Notice 2007-81, the monthly corporate

bond yield curve derived from July 2022

data is in Table 2022-7 at the end of this

notice. The spot first, second, and third

segment rates for the month of July 2022

are, respectively, 3.67, 4.67, and 4.73

The 24-month average segment rates

determined under § 430(h)(2)(C)(i)

through (iii) must be adjusted pursuant

to § 430(h)(2)(C)(iv) to be within the

applicable minimum and maximum percentages of the corresponding 25-year

average segment rates. The 25-year average segment rates for plan years beginning in 2021 and 2022 were published

in Notice 2020-72, 2020-40 I.R.B. 789,

and Notice 2021-54, 2021-41 I.R.B. 457,

respectively.

24-MONTH AVERAGE CORPORATE

BOND SEGMENT RATES

The three 24-month average corporate bond segment rates applicable for

August 2022 without adjustment for the

25-year average segment rate limits are

25-YEAR AVERAGE SEGMENT

RATES

Section 9706(a) of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Pub. L. 117-2 (the

ARP), which was enacted on March 11,

2021, changed the 25-year average segment rates and the applicable minimum

and maximum percentages used under

§ 430(h)(2)(C)(iv) of the Code to adjust

the 24-month average segment rates.2 Prior

to this change, the applicable minimum

and maximum percentages were 85%

and 115% for a plan year beginning in

2021, and 80% and 120% for a plan year

beginning in 2022, respectively. After this

change, the applicable minimum and maximum percentages are 95% and 105% for

a plan year beginning in 2021 or 2022.

In addition, pursuant to this change, any

25-year average segment rate that is less

than 5% is deemed to be 5%.3

Pursuant to § 9706(c)(1) of the ARP,

these changes apply with respect to plan

years beginning on or after January 1,

2020. However, § 9706(c)(2) of the ARP

provides that a plan sponsor may elect not

to have these changes apply to any plan

year beginning before January 1, 2022.4

The adjusted 24-month average segment rates set forth in the chart below

reflect § 430(h)(2)(C)(iv) of the Code

as amended by § 9706(a) of the ARP.

These adjusted 24-month average segment rates apply only for plan years for

which an election under § 9706(c)(2) of

Pursuant to § 433(h)(3)(A), the third segment rate determined under § 430(h)(2)(C) is used to determine the current liability of a CSEC plan (which is used to calculate the minimum amount

of the full funding limitation under § 433(c)(7)(C)).

2

Section 80602 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58, makes further changes to the time periods for which specified applicable minimum and maximum percentages

apply.

3

Pursuant to this change, the 25-year averages of the first segment rate for 2021 and 2022 are increased to 5.00% because those 25-year averages as originally published are below 5.00%.

4

This election may be made either for all purposes for which the amendments under § 9706 of the ARP apply or solely for purposes of determining the adjusted funding target attainment

percentage under § 436 of the Code for the plan year.

of the corresponding 25-year average

30-YEAR TREASURY SECURITIES

INTEREST RATES

Section 431 specifies the minimum

funding requirements that apply to multiemployer plans pursuant to § 412. Section 431(c)(6)(B) specifies a minimum

amount for the full-funding limitation

described in § 431(c)(6)(A), based on the

plan’s current liability. Section 431(c)(6)

(E)(ii)(I) provides that the interest rate

used to calculate current liability for this

purpose must be no more than 5 percent

above and no more than 10 percent below

the weighted average of the rates of interest on 30-year Treasury securities during

the four-year period ending on the last

day before the beginning of the plan year.

Notice 88-73, 1988-2 C.B. 383, provides

taxpayers from certain failure to file penalties and certain international information return (IIR) penalties with respect

to tax returns for taxable years 2019 and

2020 that are filed on or before September

30, 2022. This notice also provides relief

from certain information return penalties

with respect to taxable year 2019 returns

that were filed on or before August 1,

2020, and with respect to taxable year

2020 returns that were filed on or before

August 1, 2021. The relevant penalties

will be waived or, to the extent previously

assessed, abated, refunded, or credited,

as described in section 3.A of this notice.

Situations where penalty relief does not

apply are described in section 3.B of this

notice.

SECTION 2. BACKGROUND

Section 6651(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code (Code) generally imposes an

addition to tax for a failure to file (on or

before the date prescribed) a tax return

that is required under the authority of

subchapter A of chapter 61 (other than

part III regarding information returns) of

the Code, including certain income tax

returns.1

Section 6038 generally imposes a

penalty for the failure of certain United

States persons to furnish (on or before the

date prescribed) certain information with

respect to a controlled foreign corporation

or a controlled foreign partnership that the

person owns.

Section 6038A(d) imposes a penalty on

a “25-percent foreign-owned” domestic

corporation or wholly foreign-owned

domestic disregarded entity for the failure to furnish (on or before the date prescribed) certain information or the failure

to maintain certain records.

Section 6038C(c) imposes a penalty on

a foreign corporation engaged in a U.S.

trade or business for the failure to furnish

(on or before the date prescribed) certain

information or the failure to maintain certain records.

Section 6039F(c) imposes a penalty on

a United States person for the failure to

furnish (on or before the date prescribed)

certain information with respect to the

receipt of large gifts or bequests from foreign persons.

Section 6677 generally imposes a

penalty on a United States person for the

failure to file (on or before the date prescribed) a notice or return required by

section 6048 with respect to transactions

with, or ownership of, a foreign trust.

Section 6698(a)(1) generally imposes a

penalty for the failure of any partnership

to file (on or before the date prescribed)

the return required under section 6031.

Section 6698(a)(2) generally imposes

a penalty for filing a return that fails to

show the information required under section 6031.

Section 6699(a)(1) generally imposes

a penalty for the failure of any S corporation (as defined in section 1361(a)(1))

to file (on or before the date prescribed) a

return required under section 6037. Section 6699(a)(2) generally imposes a penalty for filing a return that fails to show the

information required under section 6037.

Section

6721(a)(2)(A)

generally

imposes a penalty for the failure to file an

information return (as defined in section

6724(d)(1)) on or before the required filing date.

The foregoing penalties do not apply

if the taxpayer can show that the failure to timely file the return or to furnish

the required information or to provide

the required notice, as applicable, is due

to reasonable cause. See §§ 6651(a)(1),

6038(c)(4)(B), 6038A(d)(3), 6038C(c),

6039F(c)(2), 6677(d), 6698(a) flush

language, 6699(a) flush language, and

6724(a).

On March 13, 2020, the President of

the United States issued an emergency

declaration under the Robert T. Stafford

Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance

Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq., in response

to the ongoing Coronavirus Disease 2019

(COVID-19) pandemic (Emergency Declaration).2 The Emergency Declaration

instructed the Secretary of the Treasury “to

provide relief from tax deadlines to Americans who have been adversely affected

by the COVID-19 emergency, as appropriate, pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 7508A(a).”

In response, the Department of the Treasury (Treasury Department) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued a series

of notices and other guidance to provide

relief to affected taxpayers. In particular, Notice 2020-17, 2020-15 I.R.B. 590,

postponed the due date for certain Federal

income tax payments from April 15, 2020,

until July 15, 2020. Notice 2020-18, 202015 I.R.B. 590, superseded Notice 2020-17

and provided expanded relief postponing

the due date for filing Federal income tax

returns that were originally due on April

15, 2020, to July 15, 2020, among other

things. Notice 2021-21, 2021-15 I.R.B.

986, postponed the due date for filing Federal income tax returns in the Form 1040

series and making certain Federal income

tax payments that were originally due on

April 15, 2021, to May 17, 2021.

Additions to tax or penalties for failure

to timely file returns continued to accrue

for taxpayers who did not file by the postponed due dates.

The COVID-19 pandemic has also had

an unprecedented effect on the IRS’s personnel and operations. The agency was

called upon to support emergency relief

for taxpayers, such as distributing economic impact payments,3 while sustaining

its regular operations in a pandemic environment with limited resources, where

employees were sometimes unable to be

physically present to process tax returns

and correspondence. In response to these

Unless otherwise stated, all “section” references are to provisions of the Code.

The IRS, in coordination with the Bureau of the Fiscal Service, issued more than 476.1 million payments through three rounds of economic impact payments, totaling more than $814.4

billion during 2020 and 2021. IRS Data Book, 2021, Publication 55-B.

challenges, the IRS has been working aggressively to process backlogged

returns and taxpayer correspondence to

return to normal operations for the 2023

filing season. The Treasury Department

and the IRS have determined that the

penalty relief described in this notice

will allow the IRS to focus its resources

more effectively, as well as provide relief

to taxpayers affected by the COVID-19

pandemic.

qualifies. However, the IRS is not precluded from disallowing a deduction for

any contributions made after an organization ceases to qualify under section 170(c)

particularly set for in section 7428(c)(1).

For individual contributors, the maximum

deduction protected is $1,000, with a husband and wife treated as one contributor.

Definition of Terms

Revenue rulings and revenue procedures

(hereinafter referred to as “rulings”) that

have an effect on previous rulings use the

following defined terms to describe the

­effect:

Amplified describes a situation where

no change is being made in a prior published position, but the prior position is

being extended to apply to a variation of

the fact situation set forth therein. Thus,

if an earlier ruling held that a principle

applied to A, and the new ruling holds that

the same principle also applies to B, the

earlier ruling is amplified. (Compare with

modified, below).

Clarified is used in those instances

where the language in a prior ruling is

being made clear because the language

has caused, or may cause, some confusion. It is not used where a position in a

prior ruling is being changed.

Distinguished describes a situation

where a ruling mentions a previously published ruling and points out an essential

difference between them.

Modified is used where the substance

of a previously published position is being

changed. Thus, if a prior ruling held that a

principle applied to A but not to B, and the

new ruling holds that it applies to both A

and B, the prior ruling is modified because

it corrects a published position. (Compare

with amplified and clarified, above).

Obsoleted describes a previously published ruling that is not considered determinative with respect to future transactions.

This term is most commonly used in a ruling

that lists previously published rulings that

are obsoleted because of changes in laws or

regulations. A ruling may also be obsoleted

because the substance has been included in

regulations subsequently adopted.

Revoked describes situations where the

position in the previously published ruling

is not correct and the correct position is

being stated in a new ruling.

Superseded describes a situation where

the new ruling does nothing more than

restate the substance and situation of a

previously published ruling (or rulings).

Thus, the term is used to republish under

the 1986 Code and regulations the same

position published under the 1939 Code

and regulations. The term is also used

when it is desired to republish in a single

ruling a series of situations, names, etc.,

that were previously published over a

period of time in separate rulings. If the

new ruling does more than restate the substance of a prior ruling, a combination of

terms is used. For example, modified and

superseded describes a situation where the

substance of a previously published ruling

is being changed in part and is continued

without change in part and it is desired to

restate the valid portion of the previously

published ruling in a new ruling that is

self contained. In this case, the previously

published ruling is first modified and then,

as modified, is superseded.

Supplemented is used in situations in

which a list, such as a list of the names of

countries, is published in a ruling and that

list is expanded by adding further names

in subsequent rulings. After the original

ruling has been supplemented several

times, a new ruling may be published that

includes the list in the original ruling and

the additions, and supersedes all prior rulings in the series.

Suspended is used in rare situations

to show that the previous published rulings will not be applied pending some

future action such as the issuance of new

or amended regulations, the outcome of

cases in litigation, or the outcome of a

Service study.
