Introduction The Internal Revenue Bulletin is the authoritative instrument of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for announcing of- ficial 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 sub- stantive 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 other- wise indicated. Procedures relating solely to matters of inter- nal 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 rul- ings 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 Unpublished rulings will not be relied on, used, or cited as precedents by Service personnel in the disposition of other cases.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, disbar- ment 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. September 16, 2019 Bulletin No. 2019–38 Part I. Section 6621.— Determination of Rate of Interest 26 CFR 301.6621-1: Interest rate. Rev. Rul. 2019-21 Section 6621 of the Internal Reve- nue Code establishes the interest rates on overpayments and underpayments of tax. Under section 6621(a)(1), the over- payment rate is the sum of the federal short-term rate plus 3 percentage points (2 percentage points in the case of a corpo- ration), 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 percent- age points. Section 6621(c) provides that for pur- poses of interest payable under section 6601 on any large corporate underpay- ment, the underpayment rate under sec- tion 6621(a)(2) is determined by sub- stituting “5 percentage points” for “3 percentage points.” See section 6621(c) and section 301.6621-3 of the Regula- tions on Procedure and Administration for the definition of a large corporate underpayment and for the rules for de- termining the applicable date. Section 6621(c) and section 301.6621-3 are gen- erally effective for periods after Decem- ber 31, 1990. Section 6621(b)(1) provides that the Secretary will determine the federal short- term rate for the first month in each calen- dar 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 be- ginning 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 Sec- retary 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 in- creased to the next highest full percent). Notice 88-59, 1988-1 C.B. 546, an- nounced 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 dai- ly compounding. The federal short-term rate determined in accordance with section 1274(d) during July 2019 is the rate published in Revenue Ruling 2019-17, 2019-32 IRB 583, to take effect beginning August 1, 2019. The fed- eral short-term rate, rounded to the nearest full percent, based on daily compounding determined during the month of July 2019 is 2 percent. Accordingly, an overpayment rate of 5 percent (4 percent in the case of a corporation) and an underpayment rate of 5 percent are established for the calendar quarter beginning October 1, 2019. The overpayment rate for the portion of a cor- porate overpayment exceeding $10,000 for the calendar quarter beginning Octo- ber 1, 2019 is 2.5 percent. The underpay- ment rate for large corporate underpay- ments for the calendar quarter beginning October 1, 2019, is 7 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 es- tablished 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 5 percent rate also applies to estimated tax underpayments for the fourth calendar quarter beginning October 1, 2019. In ad- dition, pursuant to section 6603(d)(4), the rate of interest on section 6603 deposits is 2 percent for the fourth calendar quarter in 2019. Interest factors for daily compound interest for annual rates of 2.5 percent, 4 percent, 5 percent and 7 percent are pub- lished in Tables 10, 13, 15 and 19 of Rev. Proc. 95-17, 1995-1 C.B. 564, 567, 569 and 573. Annual interest rates to be compound- ed daily pursuant to section 6622 that ap- ply for prior periods are set forth in the tables accompanying this revenue ruling.

Bulletin No. 2019–38 725 September 16, 2019 Part III. 26 CFR 601.601: Rules and regulations (Also Part 1, §§ 6049; 1.6049-4, 1.6049-8) Rev. Proc. 2019-23 SECTION 1. PURPOSE This revenue procedure provides a list of the jurisdictions with respect to which the reporting requirement of §§ 1.6049- 4(b)(5) and 1.6049-8(a) of the Income Tax Regulations applies. This revenue procedure also provides a list of the jurisdictions with which the Department of the Treasury (Treasury De- partment) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) have determined that it is appropriate to have an automatic exchange relationship with respect to the information collected under §§ 1.6049-4(b)(5) and 1.6049-8(a). These lists are updated and restated ver- sions of those set forth in Rev. Proc. 2018- 36, 2018-38 I.R.B. 442. Georgia has been added to the list of jurisdictions with which the United States has in effect a relevant information exchange agreement. Curaçao and Cyprus have been added to the list of jurisdictions with which the relevant auto- matic exchange of information has been de- termined appropriate. This updated and re- stated revenue procedure also adds a column to each list indicating for the listed jurisdic- tion the number of the revenue procedure that first included the jurisdiction in the list. SECTION 2. BACKGROUND Sections 1.6049-4(b)(5) and 1.6049- 8(a), as revised by TD 9584, 2012-20 I.R.B. 900, require the reporting of certain deposit interest paid to nonresident alien individuals on or after January 1, 2013. Section 1.6049-4(b)(5) provides that in the case of interest aggregating $10 or more paid to a nonresident alien individ- ual (as defined in section 7701(b)(1)(B)) that is reportable under § 1.6049-8(a), the payor is required to make an information return on Form 1042-S, Foreign Person’s U.S. Source Income Subject to Withhold- ing, for the calendar year in which the in- terest is paid. Interest that is reportable under § 1.6049-8(a) is interest described in sec- tion 871(i)(2)(A) that relates to a deposit maintained at an office within the United States. The regulations also provide that such deposit interest is reportable only if paid to a resident of a jurisdiction that is identified as a jurisdiction with which the United States has in effect an income tax or other convention or bilateral agree- ment relating to the exchange of tax in- formation within the meaning of section 6103(k)(4), under which the competent authority is the Secretary of the Trea- sury or his delegate and the United States agrees to provide, as well as receive, in- formation. Finally, the regulations pro- vide that jurisdictions are so identified in an applicable revenue procedure (see § 601.601(d)(2)) as of December 31 before the calendar year in which the interest is paid. The preamble to the regulations (at 2012-20 I.R.B. 901-02) notes that the IRS will not exchange information with another jurisdiction, even if an informa- tion exchange agreement is in effect, if there are concerns about confidentiality, safeguarding of data exchanged, the use of the information, or other factors that would make the exchange of information inappropriate. Rev. Proc. 2012-24, 2012-20 I.R.B. 913, was published contemporaneous- ly with the publication of TD 9584 to provide a list of those jurisdictions with which the United States has in effect an in- formation exchange agreement, such that interest paid to residents of such jurisdic- tions must be reported by payors to the ex- tent required under §§ 1.6049-4(b)(5) and 1.6049-8(a), and to provide a separate list identifying those jurisdictions with which the automatic exchange of the information collected under the regulations has been determined by the Treasury Department and the IRS to be appropriate. The current versions of those lists are set forth in Rev. Proc. 2018-36, 2018-38 I.R.B. 442. SECTION 3. JURISDICTIONS OF RESIDENCE WITH RESPECT TO WHICH THE DEPOSIT INTEREST REPORTING REQUIREMENT APPLIES The following are the jurisdictions with which the United States has in effect an income tax or other convention or bi- lateral agreement relating to the exchange of tax information within the meaning of section 6103(k)(4) pursuant to which the United States agrees to provide, as well as receive, information and under which the competent authority is the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate: Jurisdiction Rev.

DRAFTING INFORMATION The principal author of this revenue procedure is Jackie Bennett Manasterli of the Office of Associate Chief Counsel (International). For further information regarding this revenue procedure, contact Ms. Manasterli at (202) 317-6941 (not a toll-free number). 26 CFR 601.105: Examination of returns and claims for refund, credit, or abatement; determination of tax liability (Also: 842(b)) Rev. Proc. 2019-36 SECTION 1. PURPOSE This revenue procedure provides the domestic asset/liability percentages and domestic investment yields needed by foreign life insurance companies and foreign property and liability insurance companies to compute their minimum effectively connected net investment in- come under section 842(b) of the Internal Revenue Code for taxable years begin- ning after December 31, 2017. Instruc- tions are provided for computing foreign insurance companies’ liabilities for the estimated tax and installment payments of estimated tax for taxable years begin- ning after December 31, 2017. For more specific guidance regarding the compu- tation of the amount of net investment income to be included by a foreign in- surance company on its U.S. income tax return, see Notice 89-96, 1989-2 C.B. 417. For the domestic asset/liability per- centage and domestic investment yield, as well as instructions for computing for- eign insurance companies’ liabilities for estimated tax and installment payments of estimated tax for taxable years begin- ning after December 31, 2016, see Rev. Proc. 2018-45, 2018-37 I.R.B. 428. SECTION 2. PERCENTAGES AND YIELDS .01 DOMESTIC ASSET/LIABILITY PERCENTAGES FOR 2018. The Secre- tary determines the domestic asset/liabili- ty percentage separately for life insurance companies and property and liability in- surance companies. For the first taxable year beginning after December 31, 2017, the relevant domestic asset/liability per- centages are: 118.3 percent for foreign life insurance companies, and 201.2 percent for foreign property and lia- bility insurance companies. .02 DOMESTIC INVESTMENT YIELDS FOR 2018. The Secretary prescribes sep- arate domestic investment yields for for- eign life insurance companies and for foreign property and liability insurance companies. For the first taxable year be- ginning after December 31, 2017, the rel- evant domestic investment yields are: 4.5 percent for foreign life insurance com- panies, and September 16, 2019 730 Bulletin No. 2019–38 3.5 percent for foreign property and liabil- ity insurance companies. .03 SOURCE OF DATA FOR 2018. The section 842(b) percentages to be used for the 2018 tax year are based on tax return data following similar methodology as used for the 2017 year. SECTION 3. ESTIMATED TAXES To compute estimated tax and the in- stallment payments of estimated tax due for taxable years beginning after Decem- ber 31, 2017, a foreign insurance compa- ny must compute its estimated tax pay- ments by adding to its income other than net investment income the greater of (i) its net investment income as determined under section 842(b)(5) that is actually effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States for the relevant period, or (ii) the minimum effectively connected net in- vestment income under section 842(b) that would result from using the most recently available domestic asset/liabil- ity percentage and domestic investment yield. Thus, for installment payments due after the publication of this revenue procedure, the domestic asset/liability percentages and the domestic investment yields provided in this revenue procedure must be used to compute the minimum effectively connected net investment income. However, if the due date of an installment is less than 20 days after the date this revenue procedure is published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin, the asset/liability percentages and domes- tic investment yields provided in Rev. Proc. 2018-45 may be used to compute the minimum effectively connected net investment income for such installment. For further guidance in computing esti- mated tax, see Notice 89-96. SECTION 4. EFFECTIVE DATE This revenue procedure is effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017. SECTION 5. DRAFTING INFORMATION The principal author of this revenue procedure is Sheila Ramaswamy of the Office of Associate Chief Counsel (Inter- national). For further information regard- ing this revenue procedure contact Shei- la Ramaswamy at (202) 317-6938 (not a toll-free number). Bulletin No. 2019–38 i September 16, 2019 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 pub- lished 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 ap- plied 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 be- ing made clear because the language has caused, or may cause, some confusion. It is not used where a position in a prior rul- ing is being changed. Distinguished describes a situation where a ruling mentions a previously pub- lished 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 pub- lished ruling that is not considered deter- minative 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 sub- stance 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 previous- ly 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 rul- ings in the series. Suspended is used in rare situations to show that the previous published rulings will not be applied pending some future action such as the issuance of new or amended regulations, the outcome of cas- es in litigation, or the outcome of a Ser- vice study.
