Product description

The Proposed Regulations provide guidance relating to the “toll tax” due upon the mandatory repatriation of certain deferred foreign earnings. Generally, the Proposed Regulations combine the provisions announced in three prior IRS Notices (“the Section 965 Notices”), one Revenue Procedure, various frequently-asked questions released by the IRS concerning the payment and reporting of a taxpayer's I.R.C. Section 965 inclusion and related tax liability, and IRS Publication 5292. In addition, the Proposed Regulations also set forth additional guidance on a variety of topics. The Proposed Regulations not only implement the rules described in the Section 965 Notices, but also provide additional rules related to:

• Determinations of foreign tax credits associated with I.R.C. Section 965 inclusions and distributions of previously taxed earnings and profits (E&P) created by I.R.C. Section 965 adjustments to E&P and stock basis;
• Affiliated groups, including those that file consolidated returns transactions, accounting method changes and entity classification elections to be disregarded for I.R.C. Section 965;
• Subpart F income otherwise earned by foreign corporations during the inclusion year; and
• Expense allocation and apportionment.
