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 Unpublished rulings will not be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.

Bulletin No. 2022–35
Part I
Section 6621.—
Determination of Rate of
Interest
26 CFR 301.6621-1: Interest rate.
Rev. Rul. 2022-15
Section 6621 of the Internal Revenue Code establishes the interest rates
on overpayments and underpayments of
tax. Under section 6621(a)(1), the overpayment rate is the sum of the federal
short-term rate plus 3 percentage points (2
percentage points in the case of a corporation), except the rate for the portion of
a corporate overpayment of tax exceeding
$10,000 for a taxable period is the sum
of the federal short-term rate plus 0.5 of
a percentage point. Under section 6621(a)
(2), the underpayment rate is the sum of
the federal short-term rate plus 3 percentage points.
Section 6621(c) provides that for purposes of interest payable under section
6601 on any large corporate underpayment, the underpayment rate under section
6621(a)(2) is determined by substituting
“5 percentage points” for “3 percentage
points.” See section 6621(c) and section
301.6621-3 of the Regulations on Procedure and Administration for the definition
of a large corporate underpayment and
for the rules for determining the applicable date. Section 6621(c) and section
301.6621-3 are generally effective for
periods after December 31, 1990.
Section 6621(b)(1) provides that the
Secretary will determine the federal
August 29, 2022
short-term rate for the first month in each
calendar quarter. Section 6621(b)(2)(A)
provides that the federal short-term rate
determined under section 6621(b)(1) for
any month applies during the first calendar quarter beginning after that month.
Section 6621(b)(3) provides that the federal short-term rate for any month is the
federal short-term rate determined during
that month by the Secretary in accordance
with section 1274(d), rounded to the nearest full percent (or, if a multiple of 1/2 of
1 percent, the rate is increased to the next
highest full percent).
Notice 88-59, 1988-1 C.B. 546,
announced that in determining the quarterly interest rates to be used for overpayments and underpayments of tax under
section 6621, the Internal Revenue Service will use the federal short-term rate
based on daily compounding because that
rate is most consistent with section 6621
which, pursuant to section 6622, is subject
to daily compounding.
The federal short-term rate determined
in accordance with section 1274(d) during
July 2022 is the rate published in Revenue
Ruling 2022-14, 2022-31 IRB 110, to take
effect beginning August 1, 2022. The federal short-term rate, rounded to the nearest
full percent, based on daily compounding
determined during the month of July 2022
is 3 percent. Accordingly, an overpayment
rate of 6 percent (5 percent in the case of a
corporation) and an underpayment rate of
6 percent are established for the calendar
quarter beginning October 1, 2022. The
overpayment rate for the portion of a corporate overpayment exceeding $10,000
for the calendar quarter beginning October
152
1, 2022, is 3.5 percent. The underpayment
rate for large corporate underpayments for
the calendar quarter beginning October 1,
2022, is 8 percent. These rates apply to
amounts bearing interest during that calendar quarter.
Sections 6654(a)(1) and 6655(a)
(1) provide that the underpayment rate
established under section 6621 applies
in determining the addition to tax under
sections 6654 and 6655 for failure to pay
estimated tax for any taxable year. Thus,
the 6 percent rate also applies to estimated
tax underpayments for the fourth calendar quarter beginning October 1, 2022.
In addition, pursuant to section 6603(d)
(4), the rate of interest on section 6603
deposits is 3 percent for the fourth calendar quarter in 2022.
Interest factors for daily compound
interest for annual rates of 3.5 percent, 5
percent, 6 percent and 8 percent are published in Tables 12, 15, 17 and 21 of Rev.
Proc. 95-17, 1995-1 C.B. 566, 569, 571,
and 575.
Annual interest rates to be compounded
daily pursuant to section 6622 that apply
for prior periods are set forth in the tables
accompanying this revenue ruling.

ruling is Casey R. Conrad of the Office of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
1. Overview
This document contains amendments
to 26 CFR part 301 under section 6104(c),
which replace current §301.6104(c)-1,
August 29, 2022
which was issued in 1971, amended in
1973 and 1981, and redesignated in 1982,
in its entirety. Section 6104(c) was added
to the Code by section 101(e) of the Tax
Reform Act of 1969 (Pub. L. 91-172,
83 Stat. 523) and amended by section
1224(a) of the PPA of 2006 (Pub. L. 109280, 120 Stat. 1091). Section 6104(c),
as amended by the PPA, governs the circumstances under which the IRS may
disclose to State officials certain information about organizations described in
section 501(c)(3) of the Code, including
private foundations (charitable organizations), organizations that have applied for
recognition as organizations described in
section 501(c)(3) (applicants), certain
other exempt organizations, and taxable
persons.
On March 15, 2011, the Department of
the Treasury (Treasury Department) and
the IRS published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) (REG-140108-08)
in the Federal Register (76 FR 13932).
No public hearing was requested or held.
One comment letter on the NPRM was
received. This Treasury decision adopts
the NPRM with certain changes explained
in the Summary of Comments and Explanation of Provisions.
2. PPA Amendments to Section 6104(c)
Prior to the passage of the PPA, the
IRS was authorized to share certain
information with appropriate State officers (ASOs). Section 6104(c)(1), which
is unchanged by the PPA, directs the IRS
to notify the ASO of (1) a refusal to recognize an entity as a charitable organization; (2) the operation of a charitable
organization in a manner not meeting, or
no longer meeting, the requirements of
its exemption; and (3) the mailing of a
notice of deficiency for any tax imposed
under section 507 or chapter 41 or 42
of the Code. The directive to notify the
ASO of an organization no longer meeting the requirements for exemption under
section 501(c)(3) includes not only providing the ASO notice of a revocation of
exemption, but also notice (when the IRS
is so informed) that a charitable organization is terminating or has dissolved
in accordance with its governing documents. In addition, an ASO, upon request,
may inspect and copy the returns, filed
172
statements, records, reports, and other
information relating to a final determination as are relevant to any determination
under State law.
The PPA added section 6104(c)(2)
through (6) of the Code, which expanded
the IRS’s ability to disclose information to
an ASO. With respect to charitable organizations and applicants, the IRS now is
authorized under section 6104(c)(2) to
disclose information about certain proposed revocations and proposed denials
before an administrative appeal has been
made and a final revocation or denial has
been issued.
Specifically, section 6104(c)(2)(A)(i)
and (ii) provides that the IRS may disclose
to an ASO proposed refusals to recognize
organizations as charitable organizations,
proposed revocations of such recognition, and notices of proposed deficiency
of excise taxes imposed by section 507
or chapter 41 or 42 of the Code relating
to charitable organizations. Previously,
only final determinations of these kinds
(denials of recognition, revocations, and
notices of deficiency) could be disclosed
under section 6104(c).
Section 6104(c)(2)(A)(iii) provides
that the IRS may disclose to an ASO the
names, addresses, and taxpayer identification numbers of applicants. Previously,
information on applicants, other than
information relating to a final denial of
recognition, could not be disclosed under
section 6104(c).
Section 6104(c)(2)(B) provides that the
IRS may disclose to an ASO the returns
and return information of organizations
with respect to which information is disclosed under section 6104(c)(2)(A) (proposed determinations and applicant identifying information). Prior law allowed
for disclosure under section 6104(c) only
of returns and return information of organizations related to their receipt of final
determinations.
Section 6104(c)(2)(C) provides that
proposed determinations, applicant identifying information, and the related returns
and return information with respect to
charitable organizations and applicants
under sections 6104(c)(2)(A) or (B) may
be disclosed to an ASO only upon the
ASO’s written request and only as necessary to administer State laws regulating charitable organizations. Prior law
Bulletin No. 2022–35
provided for automatic disclosure – with
no requirement for a disclosure request –
but only of final determinations.
Under section 6104(c)(2)(D), the IRS
may disclose to an ASO, on its own initiative and without a written request,
returns and return information with
respect to charitable organizations and
applicants if the IRS determines that this
information may constitute evidence of
noncompliance with the laws under the
jurisdiction of the ASO. Thus, if the IRS
determines these conditions to be met,
it may, for example, disclose to an ASO
a proposed revocation of exemption for
a charitable organization that does not
have a determination letter. There was
no such provision under section 6104(c)
previously.
Section 6104(c)(3) provides that the
IRS may disclose returns and return information of organizations described in section 501(c), other than those described in
section 501(c)(1) or (3) (such as section
501(c)(4) social welfare organizations,
section 501(c)(5) labor organizations, and
section 501(c)(6) business leagues), to an
ASO upon the ASO’s written request, but
only for the purpose of, and to the extent
necessary in, administering State laws regulating the solicitation or administration
of charitable funds or charitable assets of
such organizations. Previously, only information relating to charitable organizations
or applicants was disclosed under section
6104(c).
Section 6104(c)(4) generally provides
that returns and return information of organizations and taxable persons disclosed
under section 6104(c) may be disclosed in
civil administrative and civil judicial proceedings pertaining to the enforcement of
State laws regulating such organizations,
under procedures prescribed by the IRS
similar to those under section 6103(h)(4).
There was no such provision under section 6104(c) previously.
Section 6104(c)(5) generally provides
that no return or return information may
be disclosed under section 6104(c) to the
extent the IRS determines that such disclosure would seriously impair Federal
tax administration. This disclosure prohibition, though new in the Code, was
provided previously by regulation. See
former §301.6104(c)-1(b)(3)(ii) (replaced
by these final regulations).
Bulletin No. 2022–35
Sections 6104(c)(2)(C) (flush language)
and (c)(3) provide that the IRS may
disclose returns and return information
under section 6104(c) to a State officer
or employee designated by the ASO to
receive such information on the ASO’s
behalf. Prior law did not provide for IRS
disclosures to persons other than ASOs.
Section 6104(c)(6)(B) defines an ASO
as the State attorney general, the State tax
officer, any State official charged with
overseeing charitable organizations (in
the case of charitable organizations and
applicants), and the head of the State
agency designated by the State attorney
general as having the primary responsibility for overseeing the solicitation of
funds for charitable purposes (in the case
of section 501(c) organizations other than
Federal instrumentalities and charitable
organizations). Before its amendment by
the PPA, section 6104(c)(2) defined ASO
as the State attorney general, the State
tax officer, or any State official charged
with overseeing organizations of the type
described in section 501(c)(3).
3. PPA Amendments to Related Code
Provisions
The PPA also amended section 6103 to
make section 6104(c), in its entirety, subject to its confidentiality and disclosure
provisions.
Section 6103(a)(2) provides the general rule that returns and return information are confidential and that an officer or
employee of a State who receives returns
or return information from the IRS under
section 6104(c) must not disclose such
information, except as authorized by Title
26 of the United States Code.
Section 6103(p)(3) requires the IRS to
maintain permanent standardized records
of all requests for inspection or disclosure
of returns or return information under section 6104(c) and of all such information
inspected or disclosed pursuant to those
requests.
Section 6103(p)(4) requires an ASO, as
a condition for receiving returns or return
information under section 6104(c), to
establish and maintain certain safeguards,
such as keeping permanent standardized
records of all requests and disclosures,
maintaining a secure information storage
area, restricting access to the information,
173
and providing whatever other safeguards
the IRS deems necessary to protect the
confidentiality of the information. See
§301.6103(p)(4)-1 and IRS Publication
1075, “Tax Information Security Guidelines for Federal, State and Local Agencies”. Publication 1075 is available at
http://www.irs.gov/formspubs.
The PPA also amended sections 7213,
7213A, and 7431 to impose civil and
criminal penalties for the unauthorized
disclosure or inspection of section 6104(c)
information.
4. IRS Disclosure Procedures
Under section 6103(p)(4)(E), before
a Federal or State agency may receive
returns and return information from the
IRS under section 6103 or section 6104,
it must file with the IRS a report detailing
the physical, administrative, and technical
safeguards implemented by the agency
to protect this information from unauthorized inspection or disclosure. Only upon
approval of these safeguards by the IRS,
as well as satisfaction of any other statutory requirements (such as submission of
a written request), may an agency receive
the information to which it is entitled
under the Code, and then only for the use
specified by the relevant statute.
Under various disclosure programs,
the IRS and other Federal and State agencies often execute disclosure agreements
detailing the responsibilities of the parties and the terms and parameters of the
disclosure arrangement. For example,
under section 6103(d), the IRS executes
a disclosure agreement with each State
tax agency to which it discloses information. This agreement, which serves as
the written request required by section
6103(d), has been the foundation of the
State tax disclosure program under this
provision since the Tax Reform Act of
1976.
After the enactment of the PPA, the IRS
revised its disclosure procedures under
section 6104(c), as set forth in the Internal Revenue Manual, to model them after
the section 6103(d) program. Accordingly,
the section 6104(c) program uses a disclosure agreement patterned after the section
6103(d) agreement but tailored to the specific requirements and restrictions of section 6104(c).
August 29, 2022
Summary of Comments and
Explanation of Provisions
As noted in the Background, one commenter submitted a letter commenting on
the NPRM. After considering the comments in the letter, the NPRM is adopted by
this Treasury decision with one clarifying
substantive change to §301.6104(c)-1(h)
of the proposed regulations (proposed
§301.6104(c)-1(h)) and various non-substantive clarifying changes.
1. Security, Confidentiality, and Use
Restrictions
The commenter’s primary concern is
the requirement that all disclosures under
section 6104(c) must be made pursuant
to an agreement committing the ASO
to the security, confidentiality, and use
restrictions of section 6103(p)(4), which
the commenter characterizes as onerous.
The commenter acknowledges, however,
that the changes it seeks require legislative action by Congress. The Treasury
Department and the IRS agree that the
proposed regulations implement the statutory regime enacted by Congress. Thus,
these final regulations adopt the safeguard
requirements as proposed.
As a threshold matter, the commenter asserts that only a few states have
entered into disclosure agreements due
to what the commenter characterizes as
the cumbersome nature of the safeguard
requirements of section 6103(p) and the
resources needed to adhere to them. In
the commenter’s view, the reluctance
of states to commit themselves to the
safeguard requirements of section 6103
means that the PPA actually decreased
the disclosure of information to the states
because non-participating states no longer
receive the pre-PPA notifications of final
denials, revocations, and notices of tax
deficiencies.
The Treasury Department and the
IRS do not agree with the proposition
that few states are willing to participate
in IRS information-sharing programs
because of the safeguard requirements.
As noted in the Background, the section
6104(c) agreement, under which the IRS
discloses certain information to the ASO
who is charged with the administration
of the State’s laws regulating charitable
August 29, 2022
organizations or the solicitation or administration of charitable funds or assets, is
based on the section 6103(d) agreement,
under which the IRS discloses certain
information to the State office charged
with the responsibility for administering
the State’s tax laws. Under both section
6104(c) and section 6103(d), the receipt
of information from the IRS is conditioned on the recipient agency or official
implementing and adhering to the applicable provisions of section 6103(p), as
amended by the PPA, to protect the information from unauthorized inspection or
disclosure.
The IRS currently has a section 6103(d)
agreement in each of the 50 states and the
District of Columbia with the agency or
official responsible for administering that
jurisdiction’s tax laws. In addition, the
IRS currently has section 6104(c) agreements with 9 ASOs, all of whom are State
tax officers responsible for administering State tax laws. For sample disclosure
agreements, see Internal Revenue Manual Exhibit 7.28.2-2 (Sample Disclosure
Agreement under section 6104(c) for State
Tax Officer) and Exhibit 7.28.2-1 (Sample Disclosure Agreement under section
6104(c) for Attorney General’s Office).
In view of the current participation in the
section 6104(c) disclosure program, and
considering the potential for increased
participation by other ASOs, the Treasury
Department and the IRS consider the publication of these final regulations important in fulfilling the mandate under section
6104(c) to facilitate the enforcement of
State law regarding exempt organizations
consistent with statutory requirements.
2. Information Shared Without a
Disclosure Agreement
The commenter, citing proposed
§301.6104(c)-1(b), which provides that
the IRS may require an ASO to execute
a disclosure agreement or similar document, states that it is not clear what, if any
information – other than that available to
the general public – would be disclosed to
ASOs without an agreement.
Under section 6104(c) before its
amendment by the PPA, the IRS was
required to disclose to ASOs certain final
determinations, with no requirement
that the ASO request such disclosure in
174
writing. The PPA changed this procedure,
making all of section 6104(c) subject to
the confidentiality provisions of section
6103. These final regulations provide that
the IRS may not disclose information
under section 6104(c) unless the State
receiving the information follows the
applicable disclosure, recordkeeping, and
safeguard procedures of section 6103(p)
(4). To give effect to the confidentiality
restrictions mandated by Congress, the
IRS’s disclosure program requires an ASO
to enter into a disclosure agreement with
the IRS stipulating the procedures for disclosure under section 6104(c), as well as
the restrictions on use and redisclosure.
Because of these statutory requirements,
without such an agreement, an ASO may
receive only information otherwise available to the public.
3. Use of Disclosed Information
The commenter objects to proposed
§301.6104(c)-1(h)(1), which requires
an ASO intending to use any disclosed
information in a State administrative or
judicial proceeding to notify the IRS of
this intention before such use. Under this
provision, an ASO may use the information as intended only in accordance with
any conditions the IRS might impose,
and only to the extent that the IRS determines that the disclosure would not seriously impair Federal tax administration.
The commenter states that by disclosing
taxpayer information initially to an ASO,
the IRS already has determined under proposed §301.6104(c)-1(e) that this information will not seriously impair Federal
tax administration and that requiring the
same determination again after the initial
disclosure would place an ASO at risk of
spending time and resources on developing a State law case, only to be told by
the IRS that the ASO cannot proceed. The
commenter asserts that, in an environment of scarce resources, this restriction
is likely to discourage ASOs from taking
that risk.
Section 6104(c)(5) prohibits the disclosure under section 6104(c)(1) through
(3) of returns and return information to an
ASO, or redisclosure of such information
by an ASO in a State proceeding described
in section 6104(c)(4), if the IRS determines that such disclosure or redisclosure
Bulletin No. 2022–35
would seriously impair Federal tax administration. Section 6104(c)(5) addresses
two separate actions or events, requiring
in most circumstances two separate determinations by the IRS. Because the facts
and circumstances surrounding a particular administrative or judicial proceeding
typically would not be known to the IRS
at the time of the initial disclosure of taxpayer information to an ASO, it would not
be possible during the initial disclosure to
the ASO for the IRS to determine whether
the use of that information in a subsequent State proceeding would seriously
impair Federal tax administration (such
as identifying a confidential informant
or compromising a civil or criminal tax
investigation). It is possible that the IRS
could determine that the disclosure to an
ASO would not seriously impair Federal
tax administration but that disclosure by
an ASO in a State proceeding would. To
fulfill its statutory duties, the IRS must
evaluate the effect of the use of disclosed
information in a State proceeding before
authorizing any such redisclosure.
4. Restrictions on Redisclosure
The commenter states that the prohibition in proposed §301.6104(c)-1(h)
(2) on the redisclosure of return information to an ASO’s agent or contractor
appears to include persons such as expert
witnesses, court reporters, and other litigation support service providers often
necessary to conduct civil and judicial
proceedings within the ambit of proposed §301.6104(c)-1(g)(2), as limited
by proposed §301.6104(c)-1(h)(1), which
is discussed in the prior section of this
Summary of Comments and Explanation
of Provisions. The commenter contends
that this restriction is “simply untenable”
and serves to “further undercut any rational basis” for ASOs to obtain returns and
return information under section 6104(c).
The
requirement
in
proposed
§301.6104(c)-1(h)(1) that an ASO notify
the IRS before using any disclosed information in a State proceeding is a limit on
the authority of the ASO under proposed
§301.6104(c)-1(g)(2) to make such use of
disclosed information under rules similar to
those in section 6103(h)(4), as provided in
section 6104(c)(4). With respect to section
6103(h)(4), the IRS construes “disclosure
Bulletin No. 2022–35
in judicial and administrative proceedings” to include the disclosure of returns
and return information in court during a
trial (whether or not some of those present might be considered an agent or contractor, such as a court reporter or expert
witness); in formal or informal discovery,
including depositions; in settlement negotiations; and in mediation or arbitration proceedings. Disclosure of returns and return
information is permitted to participants in,
or parties to, a judicial or administrative
proceeding (including expert witnesses)
under practices and procedures generally
applicable to the proceeding, and subject to
rules governing the proceeding. The prohibition in proposed §301.6104(c)-1(h)(2) on
the redisclosure of return information to an
ASO’s agent or contractor was not intended
to hinder a State’s ability to conduct investigations or civil litigation under its statutory authority.
In considering this comment regarding
the interaction of the two redisclosure limitations of proposed §301.6104(c)-1(h),
however, it became apparent that, by
identifying the agent-contractor disclosure prohibition as one of two limitations on the redisclosure of returns and
return information by an ASO, proposed
§301.6104(c)-1(h)(2) might be read as
limiting the application of such a restriction solely to redisclosures. The prohibition on disclosing to agents and contractors, however, is a broader rule, applying
both to initial disclosures by the IRS as
well as to subsequent redisclosures by an
ASO. With respect to disclosures by the
IRS, proposed §301.6104(c)-1(f)(1)(ii)
provides that the IRS may disclose return
information to someone other than the
ASO only if that person is a State officer
or employee designated by the ASO. With
respect to redisclosures by an ASO, proposed §301.6104(c)-1(g)(1) provides that
an ASO who receives information from
the IRS under section 6104(c) may redisclose that information for certain purposes
to another State officer or employee. The
legislative history of section 6104(c) provides that the term “officer or employee”
does not include agents and contractors, and the final regulations apply this
agent-contractor disclosure prohibition
equally to the IRS and the ASO.
Consequently, these final regulations clarify the proper application of
175
the prohibition against disclosure to
agents and contractors by eliminating proposed §301.6104(c)-1(h)(2) and
adding definitional clauses to proposed
§301.6104(c)-1(f)(1)(ii) and (g)(1) and
(2) emphasizing that the agent-contractor
disclosure prohibition applies both to IRS
disclosures and to ASO redisclosures.
5. Application of Document Retention
and Freedom-of-Information Laws
The commenter notes that many
states have document retention and freedom-of-information laws that might be
implicated whenever an ASO receives or
acts upon tax return information acquired
from the IRS. According to the commenter, nothing in the PPA or regulations
addresses what portions of tax return
information may become a part of the
ASO’s own records or work product.
This issue, however, is addressed by
section 6103, made applicable to section
6104(c) by the PPA. Among the disclosure,
recordkeeping, and safeguard provisions of
section 6103, section 6103(p)(4) requires
an ASO, as a condition for receiving
returns or return information under section
6104(c), to establish and maintain certain
safeguards, such as keeping permanent
standardized records of all requests and
disclosures, maintaining a secure information storage area, restricting access to the
information, and providing whatever other
safeguards the IRS deems necessary to protect the confidentiality of the information.
Upon completion of the ASO’s use of the
returns or return information it receives
under section 6104(c), section 6103(p)(4)
(F) requires the ASO to return the information, along with any copies, to the IRS,
or to render it undisclosable and report to
the IRS how it was so rendered. Rendering
returns and return information undisclosable requires the ASO to physically destroy
the information. Thus, after its use, any
information an ASO receives from the IRS
under section 6104(c) should no longer be
in the ASO’s possession and, so, will not
become part of the ASO’s own records or
work product.
6. Designation by Attorney General
Referring to the definition of an ASO
in section 6104(c)(6)(B)(iv) (in the case
August 29, 2022
of tax-exempt entities other than charitable organizations or Federal instrumentalities), the commenter states that it is
not clear in what circumstances an attorney general would designate the agency
responsible for overseeing charitable
solicitation. If, for example, the authority to designate the head of the agency
responsible for overseeing charitable
solicitation is vested in the secretary of
state, the agency head referred to in the
statute and the regulations would not be
able to meet the definition of an ASO in
proposed §301.6104(c)-1(i)(1)(iv).
In light of the variations in State laws,
it is doubtful that Congress used the term
“designate” in section 6104(c)(6)(B)(iv)
to mean a delegation of legal authority
(and there is no indication in the legislative history of the PPA that such a meaning
was intended). In contrast to how the term
is used in section 6104(c)(2)(C) (dealing
with the procedures for disclosure), where
it does mean to delegate authority, the
term “designate” in section 6104(c)(6)(B)
(iv) is a generic one, meaning the ability
to specify, identify, or acknowledge the
head of the agency in a particular State
who is responsible for overseeing charitable solicitation. The attorney general,
as an ASO under §301.6104(c)-1(i)(1)(i),
should be able to identify such an agency
head, whether or not the attorney general
is able to confer the requisite authority on
any particular State official.
Special Analyses
This regulation is not subject to review
under section 6(b) of Executive Order
12866 pursuant to the Memorandum of
Agreement (April 11, 2018) between the
Department of the Treasury and the Office
of Management and Budget regarding
review of tax regulations.
Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. chapter 6), it is
hereby certified that these final regulations will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities within the meaning of section
601(6) of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
The analysis requirements of the RFA
do not apply because states are not considered small entities for purposes of the
RFA. Therefore, a regulatory flexibility
analysis is not required. Accordingly, the
August 29, 2022
Secretary of the Treasury’s delegate certifies that these regulations will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
Pursuant to section 7805(f) of the
Code, the notice of proposed rulemaking preceding these final regulations was
submitted to the Chief Counsel for the
Office of Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration for comment on its impact
on small business. No comments were
received from the Chief Counsel for the
Office of Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration.
Drafting Information
The principal author of these regulations is Seth Groman of the Office of
Associate Chief Counsel (Employee Benefits, Exempt Organizations, and Employment Taxes), though other persons in the
Treasury Department and the IRS participated in their development.

*****
Par. 2. Section 301.6104(c)-1 is revised
to read as follows:
§ 301.6104(c)-1 Disclosure of certain
information to State officials.
(a) In general—(1) Charitable organizations and applicants. Subject to the
176
disclosure, recordkeeping, and safeguard
provisions of section 6103 of the Internal
Revenue Code (Code), and only as necessary to administer State laws regulating
charitable organizations, upon written
request by an appropriate State officer
(ASO, as defined in paragraph (i)(1) of
this section), the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) may, under section 6104(c)(1) and
(2), disclose or make available to the ASO
(or to a person designated by the ASO as
provided in paragraph (f)(1)(ii) of this
section) the returns and return information
described in paragraph (c) of this section
with respect to—
(i) Any organization described or formerly described in section 501(c)(3) and
exempt or formerly exempt from taxation
under section 501(a) (a charitable organization); or
(ii) Any organization that has applied for
recognition as an organization described
in section 501(c)(3) (an applicant).
(2) Section 501(c) organizations not
described in section 501(c)(1) or (3).
Subject to the disclosure, recordkeeping,
and safeguard provisions of section 6103,
and upon written request by an ASO, the
IRS may disclose or make available to the
ASO (or to a person designated by the
ASO as provided in paragraph (f)(1)(ii)
of this section) under section 6104(c)(3)
returns and return information regarding
any organization described or formerly
described in section 501(c) other than
section 501(c)(1) or (3). Such information
will be disclosed or made available only
as necessary to administer State laws regulating the solicitation or administration
of the charitable funds or charitable assets
of these organizations.
(b) Disclosure agreement. The IRS may
require an ASO to execute a disclosure
agreement or similar document specifying
the procedures, terms, and conditions for
the disclosure or inspection of information
under section 6104(c), including compliance with the safeguards prescribed by
section 6103(p)(4), as well as specifying
the information to be disclosed. Such an
agreement or similar document constitutes
the request for disclosure required by section 6104(c)(1)(C), as well as the written
request required by section 6104(c)(2)(C)
(i) and (c)(3).
(c) Disclosures regarding charitable
organizations and applicants—(1) In
Bulletin No. 2022–35
general. With respect to any organization
described in paragraph (d) of this section,
the IRS may disclose or make available
for inspection under section 6104(c)(1)
and (2) and paragraph (a)(1) of this section to an ASO the following returns and
return information with respect to a charitable organization or applicant:
(i) A refusal or proposed refusal to
recognize an organization’s exemption as
a charitable organization (a final or proposed denial letter).

grant of exemption following a proposed
denial.
(iii) A revocation of exemption as a
charitable organization (a final revocation
letter), including a notice of termination or
dissolution.

person (as described in paragraph (i)(4) of
this section).
(vii) Returns and return information
regarding the final disposition of a proposed notice of deficiency of tax imposed
under section 507 or chapter 41 or 42 of
the Code on the organization other than by
issuance of a notice of deficiency.
(viii) The names, addresses, and taxpayer identification numbers of applicants for charitable status, provided on an
applicant-by-applicant basis or by periodic lists of applicants. Under this paragraph (c)(1)(viii), the IRS may respond
to inquiries from an ASO as to whether
a particular organization has applied for
recognition of exemption as a charitable
organization.
(ix) Return information regarding the
final disposition of an application for
recognition of exemption where no proposed denial letter is issued, including
whether the application was withdrawn or
whether the applicant failed to establish
its exemption.
(x) Returns and return information relating to the return information described in
Bulletin No. 2022–35
paragraph (c)(1) of this section, except for
returns and return information relating to
proposed notices of deficiency described
in paragraph (c)(1)(vi) of this section with
respect to taxable persons.
(2) Disclosure of evidence of noncompliance with certain State laws. With
respect to any organization described
in paragraph (d) of this section, the IRS
may disclose to the ASO or make available for the ASO’s inspection under section 6104(c)(1) and (2) and paragraph (a)
(1) of this section the returns and return
information of a charitable organization
or applicant, as listed in paragraph (c)
(1) of this section, if the IRS determines
that such information might constitute
evidence of noncompliance with the laws
under the jurisdiction of the ASO regulating charitable organizations and applicants. Such information may be disclosed
on the IRS’s own initiative, subject to the
disclosure, recordkeeping, and safeguard
provisions of section 6103. Disclosures
under this paragraph (c)(2) may be made
before the IRS issues a proposed determination (denial of recognition, revocation,
or notice of deficiency) or any other action
by the IRS described in this section.
(d) Organizations to which disclosure applies. Regarding the information
described in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of
this section, the IRS will disclose or make
available for inspection to an ASO such
information only with respect to—
(1) An organization formed under the
laws of the ASO’s State;
(2) An organization, the principal office
of which is located in the ASO’s State;
(3) An organization that, as determined
by the IRS, is or might be subject to the
laws of the ASO’s State regulating charitable organizations or the solicitation or
administration of charitable funds or charitable assets; or
(4) A private foundation required by
§1.6033-2(a)(iv) of this chapter to list the
ASO’s State on any of the foundation’s
returns filed for its last five taxable years.
(e) Disclosure limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, the IRS will not disclose or make
available for inspection under section
6104(c) any information, the disclosure
of which it determines would seriously
impair Federal tax administration, including, but not limited to—
177
(1) Identification of a confidential
informant or interference with a civil or
criminal tax investigation; and
(2) Information obtained pursuant to
a tax convention, as defined in section
6105(c)(2), between the United States and
a foreign government.
(f) Disclosure recipients—(1) In general. The IRS may disclose returns and
return information under section 6104(c)
to, or make it available for inspection by—
(i) An ASO, as defined in paragraph (i)
(1) of this section, or
(ii) A person other than an ASO, but
only if that person is a State officer or
employee (which excludes an agent or
contractor) designated by the ASO to
receive information under section 6104(c)
on behalf of the ASO, as specified in paragraph (f)(2) of this section.
(2) Designation by ASO. An ASO may
designate State officers or employees to
receive information under section 6104(c)
on the ASO’s behalf by specifying in writing each person’s name and job title, and
the name and address of the person’s office.
The ASO must promptly notify the IRS in
writing of any additions, deletions, or other
changes to the list of designated persons.
(g) Redisclosure—(1) In general. An
ASO to whom a return or return information has been disclosed may thereafter
disclose such information to another State
officer or employee (which excludes an
agent or contractor) only as necessary to
administer State laws governing charitable
organizations or State laws regulating the
solicitation or administration of charitable
funds or charitable assets of noncharitable
exempt organizations.
(2) Civil administrative or judicial
proceedings. Except as provided in paragraph (h) of this section, an ASO to whom
a return or return information has been
disclosed may thereafter disclose such
information to another State officer or
employee (which excludes an agent or
contractor) who is personally and directly
preparing for a civil proceeding before
a State administrative body or court in a
matter involving the enforcement of State
laws regulating organizations with respect
to which information can be disclosed
under this section, solely for use in such a
proceeding, but only if—
(i) The organization or a taxable person is a party to the proceeding, or the
August 29, 2022
proceeding arose out of, or in connection
with, determining the civil liability of the
organization or a taxable person, or collecting such civil liability, under State
laws governing organizations with respect
to which information can be disclosed
under this subsection;
(ii) The treatment of an item reflected
on such a return is directly related to the
resolution of an issue in the proceeding; or
(iii) The return or return information
directly relates to a transactional relationship between the organization or a taxable
person and a person who is a party to the
proceeding that directly affects the resolution of an issue in the proceeding.
(h) Redisclosure limitation. Before disclosing any return or return information
received under section 6104(c) in a proceeding described in paragraph (g)(2) of
this section, the ASO must notify the IRS
of the intention to make such a disclosure.
No State officer or employee may make
such a disclosure except in accordance
with any conditions the IRS might impose
in response to the ASO’s notice of intent.
No such disclosure may be made if the IRS
determines that the disclosure would seriously impair Federal tax administration.
(i) Definitions. For purposes of section
6104(c) and this section—
(1) Appropriate State officer or ASO
means—
(i) The State attorney general;
(ii) The State tax officer;
(iii) With respect to a charitable organization or applicant, any State officer
August 29, 2022

organizations, provided that the officer
shows the IRS that the officer is an ASO
by presenting a letter from the State attorney general describing the functions and
authority of the officer under State law,
with sufficient facts for the IRS to determine that the officer is an ASO; and
(iv) With respect to a section 501(c)
organization that is not described in section 501(c)(1) or (c)(3), the head of the
agency designated by the State attorney
general as having primary responsibility

for charitable purposes, provided that the
officer shows the IRS that the officer is an
ASO by presenting a letter from the State
attorney general describing the functions
and authority of the officer under State
law, with sufficient facts for the IRS to
determine that the officer is an ASO.
(2) Return has the same meaning as in
section 6103(b)(1).
(3) Return information has the same
meaning as in section 6103(b)(2).
(4) Taxable person means any person who is liable or potentially liable for

Code. Such a person includes—
(i) A disqualified person described in

necessary to ensure compliance, including
the refusal to disclose any further returns
or return information to the ASO until
the IRS determines that the requirements
of section 6103(p)(4) have been met. For
procedures for the administrative review
of a determination that an authorized

Bulletin No. 2022–35
Part IV
Announcement of
Disciplinary Sanctions
From the Office of
Professional Responsibility
Announcement 2022-17
The Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) announces recent disciplinary sanctions involving attorneys, certified public accountants, enrolled agents,
enrolled actuaries, enrolled retirement
plan agents, appraisers, and unenrolled/
unlicensed return preparers (individuals
who are not enrolled to practice and are
not licensed as attorneys or certified public accountants). Licensed or enrolled
practitioners are subject to the regulations
governing practice before the Internal
Revenue Service (IRS), which are set out
in Title 31, Code of Federal Regulations,
Subtitle A, Part 10, and which are released
as Treasury Department Circular No.
230. The regulations prescribe the duties
and restrictions relating to such practice
and prescribe the disciplinary sanctions
for violating the regulations. Unenrolled/
unlicensed return preparers are subject to
Revenue Procedure 81-38 and superseding guidance in Revenue Procedure 201442, which govern a preparer’s eligibility
to represent taxpayers before the IRS in
examinations of tax returns the preparer
both prepared for the taxpayer and signed
as the preparer. Additionally, unenrolled/
unlicensed return preparers who voluntarily participate in the Annual Filing Season Program under Revenue Procedure
2014-42 agree to be subject to the duties
and restrictions in Circular 230, including
the restrictions on incompetent or disreputable conduct.
The disciplinary sanctions to be
imposed for violation of the applicable
standards are:
Disbarred from practice before the
IRS—An individual who is disbarred
is not eligible to practice before the IRS
as defined at 31 C.F.R. § 10.2(a)(4) for a
minimum period of five (5) years.
Suspended from practice before the
IRS—An individual who is suspended is
Bulletin No. 2022–35
not eligible to practice before the IRS as
defined at 31 C.F.R. § 10.2(a)(4) during
the term of the suspension.
Censured in practice before the
IRS—Censure is a public reprimand.
Unlike disbarment or suspension, censure
does not affect an individual’s eligibility
to practice before the IRS, but OPR may
subject the individual’s future practice
rights to conditions designed to promote
high standards of conduct.
Monetary penalty—A monetary penalty may be imposed on an individual who
engages in conduct subject to sanction,
or on an employer, firm, or entity if the
individual was acting on its behalf and it
knew, or reasonably should have known,
of the individual’s conduct.
Disqualification of appraiser—An
appraiser who is disqualified is barred
from presenting evidence or testimony in
any administrative proceeding before the
Department of the Treasury or the IRS.
Ineligible for limited practice—An
unenrolled/unlicensed return preparer
who fails to comply with the requirements
in Revenue Procedure 81-38 or to comply
with Circular 230 as required by Revenue
Procedure 2014-42 may be determined
ineligible to engage in limited practice as
a representative of any taxpayer.
Under the regulations, individuals
subject to Circular 230 may not assist, or
accept assistance from, individuals who
are suspended or disbarred with respect
to matters constituting practice (i.e., representation) before the IRS, and they may
not aid or abet suspended or disbarred
individuals to practice before the IRS.
Disciplinary sanctions are described in
these terms:
Disbarred by decision, Suspended by
decision, Censured by decision, Monetary penalty imposed by decision, and
Disqualified after hearing—An administrative law judge (ALJ) issued a decision
imposing one of these sanctions after the
ALJ either (1) granted the government’s
summary judgment motion or (2) conducted an evidentiary hearing upon OPR’s
complaint alleging violation of the regulations. After 30 days from the issuance of
the decision, in the absence of an appeal,
179
the ALJ’s decision becomes the final
agency decision.
Disbarred by default decision, Suspended by default decision, Censured
by default decision, Monetary penalty
imposed by default decision, and Disqualified by default decision—An ALJ,
after finding that no answer to OPR’s complaint was filed, granted OPR’s motion for
a default judgment and issued a decision
imposing one of these sanctions.
Disbarment by decision on appeal,
Suspended by decision on appeal, Censured by decision on appeal, Monetary penalty imposed by decision on
appeal, and Disqualified by decision
on appeal—The decision of the ALJ was
appealed to the agency appeal authority,
acting as the delegate of the Secretary
of the Treasury, and the appeal authority
issued a decision imposing one of these
sanctions.
Disbarred by consent, Suspended by
consent, Censured by consent, Monetary penalty imposed by consent, and
Disqualified by consent—In lieu of a
disciplinary proceeding being instituted
or continued, an individual offered a consent to one of these sanctions and OPR
accepted the offer. Typically, an offer of
consent will provide for: suspension for
an indefinite term; conditions that the
individual must observe during the suspension; and the individual’s opportunity, after a stated number of months, to
file with OPR a petition for reinstatement
affirming compliance with the terms of
the consent and affirming current fitness
and eligibility to practice (i.e., an active
professional license or active enrollment
status, with no intervening violations of
the regulations).
Suspended indefinitely by decision in
expedited proceeding, Suspended indefinitely by default decision in expedited
proceeding, Suspended by consent in
expedited proceeding—OPR instituted
an expedited proceeding for suspension
(based on certain limited grounds, including loss of a professional license for cause,
and criminal convictions).
Determined ineligible for limited
practice—There has been a final determination that an unenrolled/unlicensed
August 29, 2022
return preparer is not eligible for limited
representation of any taxpayer because the
preparer violated standards of conduct or
failed to comply with any of the requirements to act as a representative.
A practitioner who has been disbarred
or suspended under 31 C.F.R. § 10.60, or
suspended under § 10.82, or a disqualified appraiser may petition for reinstatement before the IRS after the expiration
of 5 years following such disbarment,
suspension, or disqualification (or immediately following the expiration of the
suspension or disqualification period if
shorter than 5 years). Reinstatement will
not be granted unless the IRS is satisfied
that the petitioner is not likely to engage
thereafter in conduct contrary to Circular 230, and that granting such reinstatement would not be contrary to the public
interest.
Reinstatement decisions are published
at the individual’s request, and described
in these terms:
Reinstated to practice before the
IRS—The individual’s petition for reinstatement has been granted. The agent,
and eligible to practice before the IRS, or
in the case of an appraiser, the individual
is no longer disqualified.
Reinstated to engage in limited practice before the IRS—The individual’s
petition for reinstatement has been granted.
The individual is an unenrolled/unlicensed
return preparer and eligible to engage in
limited practice before the IRS, subject to
requirements the IRS has prescribed for
limited practice by tax return preparers.
OPR has authority to disclose the
grounds for disciplinary sanctions in
these situations: (1) an ALJ or the Secretary’s delegate on appeal has issued a final
decision; (2) the individual has settled a
disciplinary case by signing OPR’s “consent to sanction” agreement admitting to
one or more violations of the regulations
and consenting to the disclosure of the
admitted violations (for example, failure
to file Federal income tax returns, lack of
due diligence, conflict of interest, etc.); (3)
OPR has issued a decision in an expedited
proceeding for indefinite suspension; or
(4) OPR has made a final determination
(including any decision on appeal) that an
unenrolled/unlicensed return preparer is
ineligible to represent any taxpayer before
the IRS.
Announcements of disciplinary sanctions appear in the Internal Revenue Bulletin at the earliest practicable date. The
sanctions announced below are alphabetized first by state and second by the last
names of the sanctioned individuals.

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
