SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Section 108 Reduction of Tax Attributes for S Corporations.
    OMB Number: 1545-2155.
    Regulation Project Number: REG-102822-08 (TD 9469).
    Abstract: This final regulation provides guidance on the manner in 
which an S corporation reduce its tax attributes under section 108(b) 
for taxable years in which the S corporation has discharge of 
indebtedness income that is excluded from gross income under section 
108(a). In particular, the regulations address situations in which the 
aggregate amount of the shareholders' disallowed section 1366(d) losses 
and deductions that are treated as a net operating loss tax attribute 
of the S corporation exceeds the amount of the S corporation's excluded 
discharge of indebtedness income. The regulations affect S corporations 
and their shareholders.
    Current Actions: There is no change to this existing regulation.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,000.
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 1 hour.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,000.

    Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice 
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All 
comments will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited 
on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
