through Grants.gov. The deadline for submitting an application package 
to the IRS for the Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) Program is May

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Authority for the Tax Counseling for the

1978, Public Law 95-600, (92 Stat. 12810), November 6, 1978. 
Regulations were published in the Federal Register at 44 FR 72113 on 
December 13, 1979. Section 163 gives the IRS authority to enter into 
cooperative agreements with private or public non-profit agencies or 
organizations to establish a network of trained volunteers to provide 
free tax information and return preparation assistance to elderly 
individuals. Elderly individuals are defined as individuals age 60 and 
over at the close of their taxable year. Because applications are being 
solicited before the FY 2016 budget has been approved, cooperative 
agreements will be entered into subject to the appropriation of funds.

    Dated: March 23, 2015.
