Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) about the guidance regarding the deduction for qualified business income (QBI) under Internal Revenue Code section 199A.  的 Treasury Department and IRS provided the guidance in corrected final regulations REG-107892-18 and IRS Notice 2019-17.

的 188bet亚洲真人体育下载 provided recommendations in the following five areas:

• Safe harbor for rental real estate – In this area, the 188bet亚洲真人体育下载 listed seven recommendations that seek additional clarity and recommend options to reduce taxpayer burden in complying with the provisions:
  • Allow for aggregation of commercial and residential rental real estate activities;
  • Allow taxpayers that enter into triple net lease arrangements to qualify under the revenue procedure, in situations where the activities of the taxpayer surrounding the triple net lease would otherwise satisfy the requirements outlined in the revenue procedure;
  • Provide clarity around the taxpayer’s use of real property as a residence in which the taxpayer rents a portion and resides in a portion of the real property;
  • Clarify that the time spent by a professional real estate management company would qualify toward the 250-hour requirement;
  • 减少250小时的要求;
  • Reduce the requirements of contemporaneous documentation as it relates to independent contractors and agents of the taxpayer; and
  • Provide additional clarity around reporting, specify what a taxpayer needs to include in the reporting statement, and remove the signatory requirement.
• Deemed trade or business for all commonly-owned arrangements – Treasury and the IRS should modify Treas. 注册. § 1.199A-1(b)(14) to include rentals to a commonly-owned C corporation as a deemed trade or business for the rental activity.  但是，在Treas下的聚合. 注册. § 1.199A-4(b)(1)(i) should continue to deny aggregation with a commonly-owned C corporation.
• Allocation based upon gross receipts – Treasury and the IRS should modify Treas. 注册. § 1.199 a - 3 (b) (1) (vi).  具体地说, the 188bet亚洲真人体育下载 recommended that taxpayers allocate the various deductions, which are not direct deductions of the trade or business, proportionately to the businesses based upon relative positive QBI – not gross receipts.
• Unadjusted basis immediate after acquisition (UBIA) on section 734(b) adjustment – Treasury and the IRS should provide that an excess section 734(b) adjustment generates UBIA in the same manner as an excess section 743(b) adjustment.

Definition of QBI – Treasury and the IRS should expand Treas. 注册. § 1.199A-3(b)(1) to include items commonly reported by taxpayers owning or benefiting from relevant pass-through entities. 财政部注册. § 1.199A-3(b)(1) should include a sentence such as, “的 following items are among the trade or business items that are or are not taken into account in computing QBI (not an all-inclusive list).”
