# List of Subjects in 26 CFR Part 1

      - Reporting and recordkeeping requirements

## Correction of Publication

Accordingly, 26 CFR part 1 is corrected by  making the following correcting amendments:

# PART 1—INCOME TAXES

**Paragraph 1.**                         The authority citation for part 1 continues to read in part as follows:                    

Authority:26 U.S.C. 7805 * * *

**Par. 2.**                         Section 1.403(b)-4 is amended by revising the third and fourth sentences of paragraph (c)(5)                         *Example 12.*                        (i) to read as follows:                    

§ 1.403(b)-4 

* * * * *

(c) * * *

(5) * * *

# Example 12.

(i) * * * However, the $5,000 age 50 catch-up amount deferred in 2006 is disregarded for purposes of applying the limitation at paragraph (c)(3)(i)(C) of this section to determine the special section 403(b) catch-up amount. Thus, for 2007, only $80,000 of section 403(b) elective deferrals are taken into account in applying the limitation at paragraph (c)(3)(i)(C) of this section. * * *

* * * * *

**Par. 3.**                         Section 1.403(b)-6 is amended by revising the last sentence of paragraph (e)(5) to read as follows:                    

§ 1.403(b)-6 

* * * * *

(e) * * *

(5) * * * See also § 1.403(b)-9(a)(5) for additional rules relating to annuities payable from a retirement income account.

* * * * *

**Par. 4.**                         Section 1.403(b)-7 is amended by revising the fourth sentence of paragraph (b)(1) to read as follows:                    

§ 1.403(b)-7 

* * * * *

(b) * * *

(1) * * * Thus, to the extent that a portion of a distribution (including a distribution from a designated Roth account) would be excluded from gross income if it were not rolled over, if that portion of the distribution is to be rolled over into an eligible retirement plan that is not an IRA, the rollover must be accomplished through a direct rollover of the entire distribution to a plan qualified under section 401(a) or a section 403(b) plan and that plan must agree to separately account for the amount not includible in income (so that a 60-day rollover to a plan qualified under section 401(a) or another section 403(b) plan is not available for this portion of the distribution). * * *

* * * * *

**Par. 5.**                         Section 1.403(b)-10 is amended by revising the heading of paragraph (b)(3) and adding a heading to paragraph (b)(3)(i) to read as follows:                    

§ 1.403(b)-10 

* * * * *

(b) * * *

                            (3)                             *Requirements for plan-to-plan transfers*                            —(i)                             *In general.*                             * * *
