A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify procedural requirements for penalties and disallowance periods.

This bill requires the IRS to obtain written approval from a supervisor or a specific penalties office before imposing penalties or disallowing tax credits. The approval must be secured before the agency sends the first notice to a taxpayer that allows them to appeal the decision. Additionally, the legislation defines specific timeframes for disallowing certain tax credits and mandates that the Treasury Department publish annual reports detailing how penalties are assessed and enforced. These changes take effect twelve months after the bill is enacted, with the reporting requirement beginning two years later.
