IRS Seeks New Issues for the Industry Issue Resolution Program
The Internal Revenue Service is encouraging business taxpayers, associations and other interested parties to submit to the Industry Issue Resolution (IIR) Program tax issues for resolution involving a controversy, a dispute or an unnecessary burden on taxpayers.
Though submissions can be made at anytime for consideration in the IIR program, submitted issues received by March 31, 2008, will be considered for acceptance in April.
The objective of the IIR program is to resolve business tax issues common to significant numbers of taxpayers through new and improved guidance. In past years, issues have been submitted by associations and others representing both small and large business taxpayers, resulting in tax guidance that has affected thousands of taxpayers.
Recent submissions accepted into the IIR program include:
- Integrated Public Utilities - regarding an optional method to be used by integrated utility companies in computing their qualified production activities income under IRC section 199(c).
- Automobile Last In, First Out (LIFO) - for auto wholesalers, manufacturers and dealers regarding the proper treatment of the dollar-value, LIFO inventory method for pooling purposes of crossover vehicles, which have characteristics of trucks and cars.
