Introduction The Internal Revenue Bulletin is the authoritative instrument of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for announcing offi- cial 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 Unpublished rulings will not be relied on, used, or cited as precedents by Service personnel in the disposition of other cases.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.

Bulletin No. 2022–36 183 September 6, 2022 September 6, 2022 184 Bulletin No. 2022–36 Part III Update for Weighted Average Interest Rates, Yield Curves, and Segment Rates Notice 2022-35 This notice provides guidance on the corporate bond monthly yield curve, the corresponding spot segment rates used under § 417(e)(3), and the 24-month average segment rates under § 430(h) (2) of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, this notice provides guid- ance as to the interest rate on 30-year Treasury securities under § 417(e)(3) (A)(ii)(II) as in effect for plan years beginning before 2008 and the 30-year Treasury weighted average rate under § 431(c)(6)(E)(ii)(I). YIELD CURVE AND SEGMENT RATES Section 430 specifies the minimum funding requirements that apply to single-employer plans (except for CSEC plans under § 414(y)) pursuant to § 412. Section 430(h)(2) specifies the inter- est rates that must be used to determine a plan’s target normal cost and funding target. Under this provision, present value is generally determined using three 24-month average interest rates (“seg- ment rates”), each of which applies to cash flows during specified periods. To the extent provided under § 430(h)(2)(C) (iv), these segment rates are adjusted by the applicable percentage of the 25-year average segment rates for the period end- ing September 30 of the year preceding the calendar year in which the plan year begins. 1 However, an election may be made under § 430(h)(2)(D)(ii) to use the monthly yield curve in place of the seg- ment rates. Notice 2007-81, 2007-44 I.R.B. 899, provides guidelines for determining the monthly corporate bond yield curve, and the 24-month average corporate bond segment rates used to compute the target normal cost and the funding target. Con- sistent with the methodology specified in Notice 2007-81, the monthly corporate bond yield curve derived from July 2022 data is in Table 2022-7 at the end of this notice. The spot first, second, and third segment rates for the month of July 2022 are, respectively, 3.67, 4.67, and 4.73 The 24-month average segment rates determined under § 430(h)(2)(C)(i) through (iii) must be adjusted pursuant to § 430(h)(2)(C)(iv) to be within the applicable minimum and maximum per- centages of the corresponding 25-year average segment rates. The 25-year aver- age segment rates for plan years begin- ning in 2021 and 2022 were published in Notice 2020-72, 2020-40 I.R.B. 789, and Notice 2021-54, 2021-41 I.R.B. 457, respectively. 24-MONTH AVERAGE CORPORATE BOND SEGMENT RATES The three 24-month average corpo- rate bond segment rates applicable for August 2022 without adjustment for the 25-year average segment rate limits are as follows: 24-Month Average Segment Rates Without 25-Year Average Adjustment Applicable Month First Segment Second Segment Third Segment August 2022 1.27 2.99 3.51 25-YEAR AVERAGE SEGMENT RATES Section 9706(a) of the American Res- cue Plan Act of 2021, Pub. L. 117-2 (the ARP), which was enacted on March 11, 2021, changed the 25-year average seg- ment rates and the applicable minimum and maximum percentages used under § 430(h)(2)(C)(iv) of the Code to adjust the 24-month average segment rates. 2 Prior to this change, the applicable minimum and maximum percentages were 85% and 115% for a plan year beginning in 2021, and 80% and 120% for a plan year beginning in 2022, respectively. After this change, the applicable minimum and max- imum percentages are 95% and 105% for a plan year beginning in 2021 or 2022. In addition, pursuant to this change, any 25-year average segment rate that is less than 5% is deemed to be 5%. 3 Pursuant to § 9706(c)(1) of the ARP, these changes apply with respect to plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2020. However, § 9706(c)(2) of the ARP provides that a plan sponsor may elect not to have these changes apply to any plan year beginning before January 1, 2022. 4 The adjusted 24-month average seg- ment rates set forth in the chart below reflect § 430(h)(2)(C)(iv) of the Code as amended by § 9706(a) of the ARP. These adjusted 24-month average seg- ment rates apply only for plan years for which an election under § 9706(c)(2) of 1 Pursuant to § 433(h)(3)(A), the third segment rate determined under § 430(h)(2)(C) is used to determine the current liability of a CSEC plan (which is used to calculate the minimum amount of the full funding limitation under § 433(c)(7)(C)). 2 Section 80602 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58, makes further changes to the time periods for which specified applicable minimum and maximum percentages apply. 3 Pursuant to this change, the 25-year averages of the first segment rate for 2021 and 2022 are increased to 5.00% because those 25-year averages as originally published are below 5.00%. 4 This election may be made either for all purposes for which the amendments under § 9706 of the ARP apply or solely for purposes of determining the adjusted funding target attainment percentage under § 436 of the Code for the plan year. Bulletin No. 2022–36 185 September 6, 2022 the ARP is not in effect. For a plan year for which such an election does not apply, the 24-month averages applicable for August 2022, adjusted to be within the applica- ble minimum and maximum percentages of the corresponding 25-year average segment rates in accordance with § 430(h) (2)(C)(iv) of the Code, are as follows: Adjusted 24-Month Average Segment Rates For Plan Years Beginning InApplicable MonthFirst SegmentSecond SegmentThird Segment 2021August 20224.755.366.11 2022August 20224.755.185.92 The adjusted 24-month average seg- ment rates set forth in the chart below do not reflect the changes to § 430(h)(2)(C) (iv) of the Code made by § 9706(a) of the ARP. These adjusted 24-month average segment rates apply only for plan years for which an election under § 9706(c)(2) of the ARP is in effect. For a plan year for which such an election applies, the 24-month averages applicable for July 2022, adjusted to be within the applicable minimum and maximum percentages of the corresponding 25-year average seg- ment rates in accordance with § 430(h)(2) (C)(iv) of the Code, are as follows: Pre-ARP Adjusted 24-Month Average Segment Rates For Plan Years Beginning InApplicable MonthFirst SegmentSecond SegmentThird Segment 2021August 20223.324.795.47 30-YEAR TREASURY SECURITIES INTEREST RATES Section 431 specifies the minimum funding requirements that apply to mul- tiemployer plans pursuant to § 412. Sec- tion 431(c)(6)(B) specifies a minimum amount for the full-funding limitation described in § 431(c)(6)(A), based on the plan’s current liability. Section 431(c)(6) (E)(ii)(I) provides that the interest rate used to calculate current liability for this purpose must be no more than 5 percent above and no more than 10 percent below the weighted average of the rates of inter- est on 30-year Treasury securities during the four-year period ending on the last day before the beginning of the plan year. Notice 88-73, 1988-2 C.B. 383, provides guidelines for determining the weighted average interest rate. The rate of interest on 30-year Treasury securities for July 2022 is 3.10 percent. The Service deter- mined this rate as the average of the daily determinations of yield on the 30-year Treasury bond maturing in May 2052. For plan years beginning in August 2022, the weighted average of the rates of interest on 30-year Treasury securities and the permissible range of rates used to calcu- late current liability are as follows: Treasury Weighted Average Rates For Plan Years Beginning In30-Year Treasury Weighted AveragePermissible Range 90% to 105% August 20222.191.97 to 2.30 MINIMUM PRESENT VALUE SEGMENT RATES In general, the applicable interest rates under § 417(e)(3)(D) are segment rates computed without regard to a 24-month average. Notice 2007-81 provides guide- lines for determining the minimum present value segment rates. Pursuant to that notice, the minimum present value segment rates determined for July 2022 are as follows: Minimum Present Value Segment Rates Month First Segment Second Segment Third Segment July 2022 3.67 4.67 4.73 September 6, 2022 186 Bulletin No. 2022–36 DRAFTING INFORMATION The principal author of this notice is Tom Morgan of the Office of Associate Chief Counsel (Employee Benefits, Exempt Organizations, and Employment Taxes).

See §§ 6651(a)(1), 6038(c)(4)(B), 6038A(d)(3), 6038C(c), 6039F(c)(2), 6677(d), 6698(a) flush language, 6699(a) flush language, and 6724(a). On March 13, 2020, the President of the United States issued an emergency declaration under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq., in response to the ongoing Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic (Emergency Dec- laration). 2 The Emergency Declaration instructed the Secretary of the Treasury “to provide relief from tax deadlines to Amer- icans who have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 emergency, as appro- priate, pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 7508A(a).” In response, the Department of the Trea- sury (Treasury Department) and the Inter- nal Revenue Service (IRS) issued a series of notices and other guidance to provide relief to affected taxpayers. In particu- lar, Notice 2020-17, 2020-15 I.R.B. 590, postponed the due date for certain Federal income tax payments from April 15, 2020, until July 15, 2020. Notice 2020-18, 2020- 15 I.R.B. 590, superseded Notice 2020-17 and provided expanded relief postponing the due date for filing Federal income tax returns that were originally due on April 15, 2020, to July 15, 2020, among other things. Notice 2021-21, 2021-15 I.R.B. 986, postponed the due date for filing Fed- eral income tax returns in the Form 1040 series and making certain Federal income tax payments that were originally due on April 15, 2021, to May 17, 2021. Additions to tax or penalties for failure to timely file returns continued to accrue for taxpayers who did not file by the post- poned due dates. The COVID-19 pandemic has also had an unprecedented effect on the IRS’s per- sonnel and operations. The agency was called upon to support emergency relief for taxpayers, such as distributing eco- nomic impact payments, 3 while sustaining its regular operations in a pandemic envi- ronment with limited resources, where employees were sometimes unable to be physically present to process tax returns and correspondence. In response to these 1 Unless otherwise stated, all “section” references are to provisions of the Code. 2 https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefings-statements/letter-president-donald-j-trump-emergency-determination-stafford-act/. 3 The IRS, in coordination with the Bureau of the Fiscal Service, issued more than 476.1 million payments through three rounds of economic impact payments, totaling more than $814.4 billion during 2020 and 2021. IRS Data Book, 2021, Publication 55-B. Bulletin No. 2022–36 189 September 6, 2022 challenges, the IRS has been work- ing aggressively to process backlogged returns and taxpayer correspondence to return to normal operations for the 2023 filing season. The Treasury Department and the IRS have determined that the penalty relief described in this notice will allow the IRS to focus its resources more effectively, as well as provide relief to taxpayers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

September 6, 2022 190 Bulletin No. 2022–36 Part IV Deletions From Cumulative List of Organizations, Contributions to Which are Deductible Under Section 170 of the Code Announcement 2022-18 Table of Contents The Internal Revenue Service has revoked its determination that the organi- zations listed below qualify as organiza- tions described in sections 501(c)(3) and 170(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Generally, the IRS will not disallow deductions for contributions made to a listed organization on or before the date of announcement in the Internal Revenue Bulletin that an organization no longer qualifies. However, the IRS is not pre- cluded from disallowing a deduction for any contributions made after an organiza- tion ceases to qualify under section 170(c) (2) if the organization has not timely filed a suit for declaratory judgment under sec- tion 7428 and if the contributor (1) had knowledge of the revocation of the ruling or determination letter, (2) was aware that such revocation was imminent, or (3) was in part responsible for or was aware of the activities or omissions of the organization that brought about this revocation. If on the other hand a suit for declar- atory judgment has been timely filed, contributions from individuals and orga- nizations described in section 170(c)(2) that are otherwise allowable will continue to be deductible. Protection under sec- tion 7428(c) would begin on September 6, 2022 and would end on the date the court first determines the organization is not described in section 170(c)(2) as more particularly set for in section 7428(c)(1). For individual contributors, the maximum deduction protected is $1,000, with a hus- band and wife treated as one contributor. This benefit is not extended to any indi- vidual, in whole or in part, for the acts or omissions of the organization that were the basis for revocation.

Protection under section 7428(c) of the Code begins on the date that the notice of revocation is published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin and ends on the date on which a court first determines that an organization is not described in section 170(c)(2), as more particularly set forth in section 7428(c)(1). In the case of individual contributors, the maximum amount of contributions protected during this period is limited to $1,000.00, with a husband and wife being treated as one contributor. This protection is not extended to any individual who was responsible, in whole or in part, for the acts or omissions of the organization that were the basis for the revocation. This protec- tion also applies (but without limitation as to amount) to organizations described in section 170(c)(2) which are exempt from tax under section 501(a). If the organiza- tion ultimately prevails in its declaratory judgment suit, deductibility of contribu- tions would be subject to the normal lim- itations set forth under section 170. Name of OrganizationDate Suit Filed Effective Date of Revocation Location Goodcity, NFP4/29/20227/1/2017Payson, AZ Bulletin No. 2022–36 i September 6, 2022 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 applied 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 being made clear because the language has caused, or may cause, some confu- sion. It is not used where a position in a prior ruling 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 previously 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 rul- ings will not be applied pending some future action such as the issuance of new or amended regulations, the outcome of cases in litigation, or the outcome of a Service study.
