Background

  1. Command Code PIVAR was developed to provide taxpayers various penalty explanation imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).

Authority

  1. IRM 20.1, Penalty Handbook, provides guidance to all areas of the IRS for all civil penalties imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). It sets forth general policy and procedural requirements for assessing and abating penalties, and it contains discussions on topics such as criteria for relief from certain penalties.

Responsibilities

  1. The Director, Business Support, is the director responsible for the servicewide civil penalty program.

  2. The Director, Internal Management, is the director responsible for the IDRS Command Code.

  3. Overall responsibility for civil penalty programs is assigned to OSP. OSP is a matrix organization residing in the Business Support (Small Business/Self Employed) Function. OSP is charged with coordinating policy and procedures concerning the civil penalty program administration, ensuring consistency with the penalty policy statement, reviewing and analyzing penalty information, researching penalty effectiveness on compliance trends, and determining appropriate action necessary to promote voluntary compliance.

  4. Each and every taxpayer has a set of fundamental rights when dealing with IRS as provided in the Taxpayer Bill of Rights (TBOR). All employees handling penalty cases must do so in accordance with the TBOR as listed in IRC 7803(a)(3). The TBOR can also be found at Taxpayer Bill of Rights on irs.gov

Program Management and Review

  1. Every function in the IRS has a role in proper penalty administration. It is essential that each function conduct its operations with an emphasis on promoting voluntary compliance. Appropriate business reviews should be conducted to ensure consistency with the penalty policy statement (Policy Statement 20-1) and philosophy. Attention should be directed to penalty program coordination between offices and functions to make sure that approaches are consistent and penalty information is used for identifying and responding to compliance problems.

Program Controls

  1. SACS controls all the IDRS user accesses and permissions.

General Information for Command Code PIVAR

  1. Command code PIVAR displays an explanation of the computation of the following penalties on a specific tax module:

    1. Bad Check See Exhibit 2.3.44-3.

    2. Failure to Report Tip Income See Exhibit 2.3.44-4.

    3. Fraud See Exhibit 2.3.44-5.

    4. Late Filing (also known as daily delinquency penalty) See Exhibit 2.3.44-6.See Exhibit 2.3.44-7. See Exhibit 2.3.44-8.

    5. Negligence See Exhibit 2.3.44-9.

    6. 1120s Form Missing. See Exhibit 2.3.44-11.

    7. 1065 Form Missing. See Exhibit 2.3.44-12.

  2. Four types of non-error responses are possible:

    1. Those penalties which were not assessed WILL NOT APPEAR on the screen. If all of the penalties were not assessed, a special no-penalties format will be displayed. See Exhibit 2.3.44-10.

    2. If a penalty was totally abated or requires special information as to why there is no computation breakdown an information line will be put out directly below the penalty name.

    3. A penalty computation breakdown will be displayed which explains how the penalty was computed.

    4. It is also possible to have a combination of penalty explanations using (b) and (c) above. The appropriate penalty name will be shown before each type of output.

  3. Only tax periods subsequent to 198212 will be considered.

  4. The computation uses only information accessed from the ITIF or BTIF tax module.

  5. For a complete computation, the module must not contain any of the restrictive conditions specified in the list of messages in See IRM 2.3.44.2.and See IRM 2.3.44.3.

  6. The command code will allow the TIN, MFT, tax period and name control to be passed from a preceding command code such as TXMOD and other PINEX command codes; thus eliminating the requirement to always input the data on the screen.

  7. The input screen is shown in See Exhibit 2.3.44-1.

  8. The output error display screen is shown in See Exhibit 2.3.44-2.
