FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 4910 (not toll-free number). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background This document contains proposed amendments to the Procedure and Administration Regulations (26 CFR part 301) relating to section 6402(c) and (d). The proposed regulations contain John J. McGreevy, (202) 622-
revised effective dates for the regulations under section 6402(c) and (d). Explanation of Provisions Section 6402(c) provides, in general, that the amount of any overpayment to be refunded to the person making the overpayment must be reduced by the amount of any past-due support (as defined in section 464(c) of the Social Security Act) owed by that person of which the Secretary has been notified by a State in accordance with section 464 of the Social Security Act. Section 6402(d) provides, in general, that upon receiving notice from any Federal agency that a named person owes a pastdue, legally enforceable debt to that agency, the Secretary must reduce the amount of any overpayment payable to that person by the amount of the debt, pay the amount by which the overpayment
-3is reduced to the agency, and notify the person making the overpayment that the overpayment has been reduced. The IRS currently makes offsets pursuant to section 6402(c) and (d) according to regulations prescribed under those sections. See §§301.6402-5 and 301.6402-6 of the Regulations on Procedure and Administration. Section 31001(v)(2) and (w) of the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (110 Stat. 1321-375), amended 42 U.S.C. 664(a)(2)(A) and 31 U.S.C. 3720A(h), respectively, to clarify that the disbursing agency of the Treasury Department may conduct tax refund offsets. The disbursing agency of the Treasury
Department is the FMS. The IRS and FMS have agreed that the Tax Refund Offset Program (TROP), which is currently administered by the IRS, will be merged into the centralized administrative offset program known as the Treasury Offset Program (TOP), which is administered by the FMS. The merger of the two programs is intended to
maximize and improve the Treasury Department's government-wide collection of nontax debts, including those subject to offset against the debtor's Federal tax refund. The full merger of TROP
with TOP is expected to occur by January 1, 1999. Interim rules concerning the manner in which the FMS will administer the collection of nontax federal debts after the merger of TROP with TOP were published by the FMS in the Federal Register on June 25, 1997 (62 FR 34175) (codified at 31 CFR Part 285) effective for refunds payable after January 1, 1998. The
-4regulations proposed in this document provide an ending effective date for §301.6402-6 to accommodate the beginning effective date of the FMS regulations. Accordingly, §301.6402-6 will not apply
to refunds payable after January 1, 1998. A notice of proposed rulemaking concerning the manner in which the FMS will administer the collection of past-due child support payments was published by the FMS in the Federal Register on August 4, 1998 (63 FR 41688) (which when finalized will be codified at 31 CFR Part 285), effective for refunds payable after January 1, 1999. The regulations in this document provide an
ending effective date for §301.6402-5 to accommodate the expected beginning date for the full merger of TROP with TOP. Accordingly, it is expected that §301.6402-5 will not apply to refunds payable after January 1, 1999. Special Analyses It has been determined that this notice of proposed rulemaking is not a significant regulatory action as defined in EO 12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment is not required.
It also has been determined that section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does not apply to these regulations, and because the regulation does not impose a collection of information on small entities, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) does not apply. Pursuant to

Comments and Requests for a Public Hearing Before these proposed regulations are adopted as final regulations, consideration will be given to any electronic or written comments (a signed original and eight (8) copies of written comments) that are submitted timely to the IRS. All A
comments will be available for public inspection and copying. public hearing may be scheduled if requested in writing by a person that timely submits written comments.
If a public hearing
is scheduled, notice of the date, time, and place for the hearing will be published in the Federal Register. Drafting Information The principal author of these regulations is John J. McGreevy, Office of Assistant Chief Counsel (Income Tax and Accounting). However, other personnel from the IRS and the
Treasury Department participated in the development of the regulations.
