Treasury seeks comment on garnishment-notice paperwork burden estimate

A routine Paperwork Reduction Act notice covering the disclosure financial institutions must give account holders when a garnishment order reaches an account receiving federal benefit payments.

  • The collection governs notices required under 31 CFR 212.6 when a garnishment order affects an account with directly deposited federal benefit payments.
  • Treasury estimates 487,750 respondents and 487,750 total annual responses, occurring on occasion upon qualifying garnishment events.
  • Estimated time per response is 10 minutes per account-holder notice and 5 minutes per child support notice, totalling an estimated 76,688 annual burden hours.
  • The 2023 supporting statement reports no program changes but describes a revised burden-estimation methodology.

Treasury proposes rules defining large institutional investors barred from buying homes

Treasury has issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to implement section 1001 of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, which bars large institutional investors from buying single-family homes subject to exceptions. The rule defines undefined statutory terms and clarifies enforcement before the prohibition takes effect. Comments are due November 23, 2026.

  • Comments on the proposed rule must be received on or before November 23, 2026.
  • The statutory prohibition and exceptions take effect January 7, 2027, 180 days after the Act's July 11, 2026 enactment.
  • A renovate-to-rent program requires improvements of at least 15 percent of the purchase price, with a non-exclusive safe harbor at 10 percent for structural or core system elements.
  • Civil penalties under section 1001(d) can reach the greater of $1 million or three times the purchase price of the property, and a purchase violating the Act involving more than one large institutional investor counts as a single violation for calculating the maximum penalty.
  • Treasury states it intends further rulemakings on other aspects of section 1001, including compliance procedures, reporting, recordkeeping, and enforcement actions.

Treasury finalises Treasury auction rule changes ahead of system upgrade

Treasury has issued a final rule amending the Uniform Offering Circular that governs the sale and issuance of marketable Treasury bills, notes and bonds. Most changes are technical, but one reworks how submitters hand over noncompetitive customer bids. The rule took effect on 15 October 2026, though the operationally significant pieces apply only when Treasury's upgraded auction system goes live.

  • Submitters must provide each individual noncompetitive customer's name and bid amount before the noncompetitive auction close, and can no longer submit a summary bid amount.
  • The amendments to 31 CFR 356.14 and 356.23 apply from the first auction conducted on Treasury's upgraded auction system, which Treasury will communicate in advance; all other changes apply from the effective date of 15 October 2026.
  • Treasury is updating terminology across sections 356.15, 356.20, 356.21, 356.23 and others, including using 'award' and 'recognize' in place of 'accept' and 'tender'.
  • Treasury removed references to http://www.treasurydirect.gov in sections 356.23(a) and 356.31(a), stating instead that it will make auction results available on its website.

  • The IRS states there is no change to the previously approved information collection, which is an extension of a currently approved collection.

IRS finalizes rule on stock basis timing for consolidated group transfers

Treasury and the IRS have finalized a narrow but technical fix to the consolidated return regulations governing intragroup section 351 exchanges. The rule resolves a basis-reduction timing question that has been open since 2001 and affects how large corporate groups compute stock basis after an internal asset transfer involving assumed liabilities.

  • The final rule revises 26 CFR 1.1502-80(d)(1) and adds paragraphs (d)(3) and (d)(4), effective October 16, 2026.
  • It applies to consolidated return years for which the return due date, without extensions, falls after October 16, 2026.
  • No comments were received on the December 30, 2024 proposed regulations (REG-134420-10), and no public hearing was held or requested.
  • The final rule removes an example from the 2024 proposal that Treasury and the IRS said was no longer relevant following amendments to section 357(c)(1)(B) by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
  • The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs designated the rule as not a major rule under the Congressional Review Act, and it was exempted from Executive Order 12866 review under a July 4, 2025 Treasury-OMB memorandum of agreement.

Treasury seeks comment on AI-assisted Fraud.gov tip intake form

Treasury has published a Paperwork Reduction Act notice renewing the information collection behind Fraud.gov, a government-wide tip intake and referral portal. The notice discloses that an AI tool drafts initial field entries and routing suggestions from public submissions, a detail compliance and government affairs teams tracking federal fraud referral channels will want to note.

  • Comments on the collection are due by December 21, 2026, sent to the Treasury PRA Clearance Officer or PRA@treasury.gov.
  • Treasury estimates 80,000 respondents annually, each submitting once, for an estimated total annual burden of 40,000 hours.
  • An artificial intelligence tool processes initial tip entries, populates standardized fields and generates routing recommendations before human review.

  • This is an extension without change of a currently approved collection under OMB Control Number 1505-0284.

IRS withdraws proposed per se device test and anti-abuse rules for Section 355 spinoffs

Treasury and the IRS have partially withdrawn their 2016 proposed regulations under Section 355, removing a mechanical 'per se' device test and two anti-abuse rules that tax planners had criticised. This matters to any corporation contemplating a tax-free spinoff, and to the advisers who structure them, because the most prescriptive parts of the 2016 package are now off the table while the agencies keep studying the area.

  • The IRS withdrew proposed Sections 1.355-2(d)(2)(iv)(E) and (d)(5) and 1.355-9(d) as of October 21, 2026, from the notice of proposed rulemaking published on July 15, 2016 (81 FR 46004).
  • The withdrawn 'per se' device rule would have treated a distribution as a device whenever a corporation's Nonbusiness Asset Percentage exceeded designated thresholds, regardless of other nondevice factors such as a corporate business purpose.
  • Two anti-abuse rules are also withdrawn, including one tied to a minimum Five-Year-Active-Business Asset Percentage of at least five percent for both the distributing and controlled corporations.
  • Treasury and the IRS acted after receiving stakeholder feedback that was generally critical of the 'per se' device rule and the two anti-abuse rules.
  • The withdrawal does not affect the potential application of other rules or judicial doctrines, such as the substance-over-form or step-transaction doctrines.
